Alex, et.al. So it turns out that if I unload the openvswitch kernel modules the warning goes away. I would this on the web page that explains it (I think):
"The *_get_stats functions call get_stats_via_vport(), which tries to get information about ports attached to the kernel datapath. When a pure userspace switch is used (eg, the OVS kernel module isn't loaded), ports are not attached to a kernel datapath, so warnings get logged. This commit handles that case and doesn't log a warning. However, if the kernel datapath is loaded, ports attached to a userspace datapath will still log a warning. So without the kernel modules loaded I get the following error which is OK since I am using dpdk: "2014-10-14T18:20:50.169Z|00011|dpif_netlink|ERR|Generic Netlink family 'ovs_datapath' does not exist. The Open vSwitch kernel module is probably not loaded." — Gil PS – I still can not get OVS/DPDK working on ubuntu 14.04 – I am at wits end. Anyone willing to help me?

Are you just trying to add a vlan interface? Maybe provide the `ovs-vsctl show` output?
