openvswitch: Use regular GRE net_device instead of vport
Using GRE tunnel meta data collection feature, we can implement
OVS GRE vport. This patch removes all of the OVS
specific GRE code and make OVS use a ip_gre net_device.
Minimal GRE vport is kept to handle compatibility with
current userspace application.
