  -----------
  odp-util: Don't attempt to write IPv6 flow label bits that don't exist.

The ipv6_label field member of struct ovs_key_ipv6 is 32 bits in size,
but an IPv6 label is only 20 bits, so the upper 12 bits are not writable
and must be 0 in the mask.  The code wasn't careful about this so it could
try to write them anyway.  This commit fixes the problem.
