I think you are referring to old out of tree code - no version of upstream OVS does this. In addition, any old code won't work against the new kernels that would include this driver update anyways so there won't be a benefit in any case. Please just use the normal registration mechanism that is already exposed. I also noticed that in the Geneve case you aren't currently registering for port notifications and just using the assigned port number in all cases, which isn't right.
