ovs_key_mac_proto returns u8  (supposedly enum sw_flow_mac_proto)

The new skb_mpls_pop takes bool as the last argument.
int skb_mpls_pop(struct sk_buff *skb, __be16 next_proto, int mac_len,
                 bool ethernet)

But if I change the new prototype to take u8(enum sw_flow_mac_proto) as the last argument

I need to make the generic skb_mpls_pop code aware of enum sw_flow_mac_proto defined in Openvswitch/flow.h .

-  if (ethernet) {
+ if(ethernet == MAC_PROTO_ETHERNET)
                struct ethhdr *hdr;

                /* use mpls_hdr() to get ethertype to account for VLANs. */
                hdr = (struct ethhdr *)((void *)mpls_hdr(skb) - ETH_HLEN);
                skb_mod_eth_type(skb, hdr, next_proto);
        }
        skb->protocol = next_proto;

Also ,it means at all the places where skb_mpls_pop is used, this Openvswitch header file (Openvswitch/flow.h)
has to be included, which I assume is not clean.
