    openvswitch: remove another BUG_ON()

    If we can't build the flow del notification, we can simply delete
    the flow, no need to crash the kernel. Still keep a WARN_ON to
    preserve debuggability.

    Note: the BUG_ON() predates the Fixes tag, but this change
    can be applied only after the mentioned commit.

    v1 -> v2:
     - do not leak an skb on error

    Fixes: aed067783e50 ("openvswitch: Minimize ovs_flow_cmd_del critical section.")
