Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 has backported the netdev RX
handler facility so use the netdev_rx_handler_register as
an indicator.
The handler prototype changed between 2.6.36 and 2.6.39
since there could be backports in any stage, don't look
at the kernel version, but at the prototype.

With the latest change of separating vports into their own modules,
it is necessary to export all public functions in linux/compat/
directory. Also, we should prefix functions which replace the
upstream ones with 'rpl_' and others with 'ovs_'. This will prevent
the linker error when vport modules use those functions in the future.
e.g., the to be merged vport-stt module will use the flex_array_*
functions which are not currently exported.

The linux-2.6 and compat-2.6 directories apply equally to the upcoming
Linux 3.0 release, so this drops the 2.6 suffix and updates Makefiles.
