  - d/control: Disable openvswitch-datapath-dkms package.
  - d/patches/kernel_3.5_support.patch: Fix openvswitch-switch startup

Disable openvswitch-datapath-dkms package (LP: #1018265); it's not
compatible with the 3.5 kernel (which provides the openvswitch module)
and if users really required the brcompat module and are using an older
kernel then they can use openvswitch-datapath-source.
