Just a nit, but looking at the -03, version, I can see how the proposed Geneve option is parsed, but what is the plan for the future? Currently, the first 4 octets of the option data have a fixed format. If the H flag-bit is present (in the 5th bit of the option data), then the last 38 octets are the HMAC information (which seems to have redundant type and length fields). The remaining octets are divided into a list of IPv4 or IPv6 addresses. (Presumably the type is determined by context.)
But it's not clear to me how this generalizes. It seems like the tail of the option data is intended to be a series of TLV items, but how does one find the dividing point between the SF address list and the TLVs?
