Hi, Ales!

We would like to avoid checking for ACL while passing the egress pipeline
on logical switch the  where the target port (sink) locates for cloned packet.

That makes sense, with that you can probably scratch the suggestion from
last paragraph.

However, it makes this approach very error prone. If OVN changes the
pipeline order, or adds another pipeline after "ls_in_l2_unknown",
we might break the mirroring. I think it would make it way clearer
and more robust if we would add a new action that would actually do
the whole "clone { outport = "..."; resubmit(,OFTABLE_OUTPUT_INIT) }".

I'm still a bit confused by the whole CT skip. So the flow matches
on the outport being the mirror port mp-*. Is it because the clone
will continue within the original switch in the egress so you want
to avoid ACLs?
