Can you try without VLAN and see the accuracy ?

man ovs-actions for check_pkt_larger says

****
Syntax:
       check_pkt_larger(pkt_len)->dst

       Checks if the packet is larger than the specified length in pkt_len.
If so, stores 1 in dst, which should be a 1-bit field; if not, stores 0.

       The packet length to check againt the argument pkt_len includes the
L2 header and L2 payload of the packet, but not the VLAN tag (if present).

       Examples:
              ·      check_pkt_larger(1500)->reg0[0]
              ·      check_pkt_larger(8000)->reg9[10]
