Hi Ben/Ian,
I understand that the second part of the patch needs more review. But do you 
think we can atleast merge the first part of this viz 
https://mail.openvswitch.org/pipermail/ovs-dev/2018-May/346649.html  so that to 
crash and more importantly silent leaks . We can widely review the other part 
of the code as it might require more indepth testing and review.

What are your suggestions ?

Regards
Anju

Bug fixes are welcomed at any time, pre- or post-release.
