> After driver sets the missed chain on the tc skb extension it is
> consumed (deleted) by tc_classify_ingress and tc jumps to that chain.
> If tc now misses on this chain (either no match, or no goto action),
> then last executed chain remains 0, and the skb extension is not re-added,
> and the next datapath (ovs) will start from 0.
> 
> Fix that by setting last executed chain to the chain read from the skb
> extension, so if there is a miss, we set it back.
