For what it's worth, you are not seeing a drop "rule", you are seeing no
action being taken for this packet.

There is one way ([#1], below), and 3 or 4 typical situations in which
packets have no action:

1) Matching a flow that results in no actions (or equivalently,
'actions=drop', which is an alias for 'actions=')
2) Matching a flow that results in the NORMAL action, when L2 learning
indicates the packet should be dropped [Equivalent to (#1)]
3) Matching "no flow at all", which matches the default flow - with switch
in fail-mode=...
3a) fail-mode=secure [Equivalent to (#1)]
3b) fail-mode=standalone [Equivalent to (#2)]
