The vport-vxlan in openvswitch was the last user and it is now gone. And we can now rename the internal function to have a better name.
Note: since it's an exported symbol, there is a possibility that some out-of-tree module is using it. So, alternative is to deprecate it instead by adding a warning if it is ever called.
