I changed the fc_conf initialization to use memset, because clang was
complaining about the initializer.

I moved the description in vswitch.xml to avoid nesting inside the "Common
Columns" group.

I changed slightly the wording in vswitch.xml, in case we want to implement
this even for non DPDK devices.

I added your name to AUTHORS

and pushed this to master

Thanks!
