I can add a quick incremental later as well.

I understand; more generally:

If these special values were strings at the dpctl level then it would be
more obvious
what I meant.

i.e.
ovs-appctl dpctl/ct-zone-set-limits zone=1,limit=unlimited
ovs-appctl dpctl/ct-zone-set-limits zone=1,limit=default  (i.e. "delete")
ovs-appctl dpctl/ct-zone-set-limits zone=1,limit=4

The internal values could be
unlimited: 0
default: -1
or whatever.

But I understand your time constraint, so don't worry about it for your
patchset.
