[PATCH net-next] openvswitch: fix VxLAN-gpe port can't be created in ovs compat mode

2016-12-08 Thread Yi Yang
In ovs compat mode, ovs won't use LWT in current kernel, this is to make sure ovs can work on the old kernels, Linux kernel v4.7 includes VxLAN-gpe support but many Linux distributions' kernels are odler than v4.7, this fix will ensure that ovs can create VxLAN-gpe port correctly on old kernels, it
