Simply running the following commands in a loop will trigger a crash rather quickly: ovs-vsctl add-br test ovs-vsctl del-br test == Fix == Disable the logic introduced by the above commit on i386. == Regression Potential == Low, the above commit introduced a new feature. Per upstream, the result of not having this feature results in higher CPU usage and potential buffering issues in user space. == Test Case == See SRU justification above.
