Subject: [PATCH] dpif-netdev: includes microsecond delta in meter bucket 
calculation

When dp-netdev meter rate is higher than 200Mbps, observe
more than 10% bias from configured rate value with UDP traffic.

In dp-netdev meter, millisecond delta between now and last used
is taken into bucket size calcualtion, while sub-millisecond part
is truncated.

If traffic rate is pretty high, time delta can be few milliseconds,
its ratio to truncated part is less than 10:1, the loss of bucket
size caused by truncated can be observed obviously by commited
traffic rate.

In this patch, microsendcond delta part is included in calculation
of meter bucket to make it more precise.
