This should not be required. mask is linked to a flow and gets
released when flow is removed.
Does the memory leak occur when OVS module is abruptly unloaded and
userspace does not cleanup flow table?
In that case better fix could be calling ovs_flow_tbl_remove()
equivalent from table_instance_destroy when it is iterating flow
table.
