In rare situations, hs_hash_add_key_with_hash() will try to add a flow already in the flow table. Callers of hs_hash_add_key_with_hash() ignored these cases and discarded the associate updates. The reason for not handling those cases was that rte_hash_add_key_with_hash() does not return the entry ID when it already exists in the table, and adding a lookup to the hot path was not desirable. However, hs_hash_add_key_with_hash(), from the new hash table library, provides the entry ID when it is already in the table.
