Currently we require a Linux bridge to exist between OVS and the physical interface. This is necessary if you want to set an IP on the native VLAN of that interface, but that is not always the case. This change allows the physical interface (or any non-bridge interface) to be plugged into OVS. Change-Id: I2172a74f4719605f6ec81fadec46ce49f8310a96 Story: 2007364 Task: 38920

Adds support for plugging the Open vSwitch provider bridge directly into a
|
|
an Ethernet interface. Previously it was necessary to define a Linux
|
|
bridge, into which Kayobe would plug a virtual Ethernet pair. The use of a
|
|
direct connection may provide improved performance, or allow additional
|
|
hardware offloading. See `story 2007364
