[Bug 1379201] Re: openvswitch-datapath-dkms 1.4.6-0ubuntu1.12.04.3: openvswitch kernel module failed to build [error: too many arguments to function ‘ip_select_ident’]

 

This is obviously a regression in API compatibility for the kernel
itself.  Marking a linux task to note that.

Now, it may be an acceptable regression in the API, but we need to grep
all dkms modules in the archive to see how many might be affected buy
this interface change and make an informed decision about possibly
reverting, not just paper over it in openvswitch and declare it a done
deal.
