In 1.11, there is kernel wildcarding for flows. So if you are using
OVS as a simple mac learning switch, then flows with different TCP
ports are not treated as separate flows but rather a single flow. So,
a single flow in kernel will be good enough to handle all your TCP
connections. My answer is based on the assumption that you do not have
openflow flows that want to look at every TCP port and do something
about it.
