Open vSwitch isn't an IP stack, so it is not going to send back an ICMP protocol not supported response on its own. Something else must be generating that; for example, if the controller is causing packets to be directed to the Linux IP stack (e.g. by sending them to eth local port) but the Linux IP stack is not configured to handle IPIP packets, then this seems like plausible behavior. -- "I don't normally do acked-by's.
