If OVS receives a packet from another namespace, then the packet should be scrubbed. However, people have already begun to rely on the behaviour that skb->mark is preserved across namespaces, so retain this one field.
This is mainly to address information leakage between namespaces when using OVS internal ports, but by placing it in ovs_vport_receive() it is more generally applicable, meaning it should not be overlooked if other port types are allowed to be moved into namespaces in future.
