It wasn't broken, it was intentionally disabled. I don't think we should introduce ability to configure the number of handlers for per-CPU dispatch mode. It only allows users to shoot themselves in a foot if they do not understand what they are doing. Many integration scripts in a wild are still blindly setting these options without even knowing that the underlying implementation changed completely. And those setups may suffer if we suddenly decide to respect the configuration that is ignored on modern kernels for all currently supported versions of OVS.
