Tonghao Zhang 61ca533c0e net: openvswitch: don't call pad_packet if not necessary
The nla_put_u16/nla_put_u32 makes sure that
*attrlen is align. The call tree is that:

nla_put_u16/nla_put_u32
  -> nla_put		attrlen = sizeof(u16) or sizeof(u32)
  -> __nla_put		attrlen
  -> __nla_reserve	attrlen
  -> skb_put(skb, nla_total_size(attrlen))

nla_total_size returns the total length of attribute
including padding.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
