Good catch.

But this should just reset the SW_FLOW_KEY_INVALID flag, there's no
need to recompute mac_proto.

Something like this:

 int ovs_flow_key_update(struct sk_buff *skb, struct sw_flow_key *key)
 {
-	return key_extract(skb, key);
+	int res;
+
+	res = key_extract(skb, key);
+	if (!res)
+		key->mac_proto &= ~SW_FLOW_KEY_INVALID;
+	return res;
 }

Thanks,
