I got some more details, Here is exactly how to get it on a clean install
rm -rf /etc/openvswitch/conf.db
service openvswitch restart
ovs-vsctl add-br mybridge
ovs-vsctl --may-exist add-port mybridge myport -- set interface myport
type=vxlan options:remote_ip=10.1.1.1
And there you go, i start getting below lines in /var/log/messages
ovs-vswitchd: ovs|00001|odp_util(revalidator18)|ERR|invalid Ethertype 0 in
flow key
ovs-vswitchd: ovs|00002|odp_util(revalidator18)|ERR|invalid Ethertype 0 in
flow key
ovs-vswitchd: ovs|00003|odp_util(revalidator18)|ERR|invalid Ethertype 0 in
flow key
ovs-vswitchd: ovs|00004|odp_util(revalidator18)|ERR|invalid Ethertype 0 in
flow key
ovs-vswitchd: ovs|00005|odp_util(revalidator18)|ERR|invalid Ethertype 0 in
flow key
