The section on connecting bridges includes a paragraph
describing usage with Open vSwitch 1.9 and the OOT kernel module.
Remove this paragraph as that release is very old;
Support for the OOT module was removed in the v3.0 release of Open vSwitch;
And is now no longer supported by any maintained versions of Open vSwitch.

Changes in v2
* New patch
* Replaces old patch that augmented this paragraph with
a note that the OOT kernel modules is no longer supported.
* As discussed with Eelco in his review of v1

- If you are using Open vSwitch 1.9 or an earlier version, then you need to
- be using the kernel module bundled with Open vSwitch rather than the one
- that is integrated into Linux 3.3 and later, because Open vSwitch 1.9 and
- earlier versions need kernel support for patch ports. This also means that
- in Open vSwitch 1.9 and earlier, patch ports will not work with the
- userspace datapath, only with the kernel module.
