(Sorry for duplicates received, the original message had a typo in the
mailing list address.)

Doesn't this move in the opposite direction of your patches to make
IPv6 GSO/GRO always available?  The packets being processed here are
generally created by the guest but with Open vSwitch running on the
host.  Also, ipv6_skip_exthdr() is in exthdrs_core.c, so it actually
is always available.  I suspect that the real problem is that the
dependency on the ipv6 directory changed to CONFIG_INET and Open
vSwitch should now depend on this.
