    net: openvswitch: datapath: fix data type in queue_gso_packets

    gso_type is being used in binary AND operations together with SKB_GSO_UDP.
    The issue is that variable gso_type is of type unsigned short and
    SKB_GSO_UDP expands to more than 16 bits:

    SKB_GSO_UDP = 1 << 16

    this makes any binary AND operation between gso_type and SKB_GSO_UDP to
    be always zero, hence making some code unreachable and likely causing
    undesired behavior.

    Fix this by changing the data type of variable gso_type to unsigned int.
