dpctl: dpif: add kernel datapath cache hit output

This patch adds cache usage statistics to the output: $ ovs-dpctl show system@ovs-system: lookups: hit:24 missed:71 lost:0 flows: 0 masks: hit:334 total:0 hit/pkt:3.52 cache: hit:4 hit rate:4.2105% port 0: ovs-system (internal) port 1: genev_sys_6081 (geneve: packet_type=ptap) port 2: br-int (internal) port 3: br-ex (internal) port 4: eth2 port 5: sw1p1 (internal) port 6: sw0p4 (internal) Signed-off-by: Eelco Chaudron <echaudro@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: 0-day Robot <robot@bytheb.org>
