I don't understand your explanation.  decode_NXAST_RAW_DECAP() converts an 
OpenFlow action in wire format into OVS internal format.  The OpenFlow action 
that it contains might have been generated by anything (for example, a 
controller).  parse_ENCAP() doesn't have anything to do with it as far as I can 
tell.
