Hi Roi,

Note the discussion ongoing on this thread, where similar solutions are
proposed for similar issues:
https://mail.openvswitch.org/pipermail/ovs-dev/2020-July/372954.html

I think there is a decision to be made on that thread, and we can incorporate
the fix suggested here if required based on the outcome of that discussion.

Thanks, -Harry
