If there's a case where the userspace sends a drop reason that isn't
known to the kernel, we will reject the flow, and the only "close" drop
will be OVS_XLATE_OK, which would be wrong.  Is there a reason to do
this?  For example, userspace might get new support for some kind of
flows and during that time might have a new xlate drop reason.  Maybe we
can have a reason code that OVS knows will exist, so that if this fails,
it can at least fall back to that?

Can we also include the reason here?
