I tried the latest ovs with linux-next openvswitch.ko and the one from
latest ovs.

I see no errors in when I use the driver from latest ovs.

When I use the in kernel driver I see this error :

[ 2497.408140] openvswitch: netlink: Key attribute has unexpected length
(type=21, length=4, expected=0).

when adding the bridge.

And this is because in the latest ovs attr 21 is OVS_KEY_ATTR_MPLS

whereas with the openvswitch.ko coming from linux-next attr 21
is OVS_KEY_ATTR_TUNNEL_INFO.

Note that in the latest ovs attr OVS_KEY_ATTR_TUNNEL_INFO is changed to 22.

Thanks.
