Hi Jun, not sure if I get the point here, as ovs_vport_name() translates into 
vport->dev->name.

So are we trying to catch the interface rename between the dev_get_by_name(), 
and the code below? This rename could happen at any other place, so this check 
does not guarantee anything. Or am I missing something?
