Declare ovs key structures using macros to enable retrieving fields
information, with no functional change.

I agree with Pravin, this need a much better commit message.

Maybe even better to submit this alongside whatever is supposed
to use these new macros.

This patch is equivalent to a work done in the OVS tree.

https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/1023405/

As a standalone it doesn't serve any purpose (as mentioned - no
functional change).

It serves as a pre-step towards another patch in the OVS:

https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/1022794/

So, the purpose of doing it in the kernel is just to keep this H file
identical. Once it is approved for the kernel, we will be able to
proceed with it in the OVS.
