Calling this helper causes a warning on patch 3 due to different types
for the 2nd argument. The warning could be addressed there with an
explicit cast but it looks like 'vxflags' is not used at all here.

I suggest to add a preparation patch dropping such argument (and the
same for vxlan_build_gpe_hdr(), still in the same patch), should be
cleaner.
ACK

Thanks,

Paolo
