OVS userspace actually uses this distinction to determine whether it
is the datapath or the port that doesn't exist.  For example, see
netdev_vport_set_config().  In general, it's also usually helpful to
have more information about the cause of the error as long as it
doesn't expose implementation details.

Also, would you mind keeping the subject of your patches to around 70
characters in the future so they don't wrap?
