From: Numan Siddique <numans at ovn.org>

(Removed the RFC tag and Submitting these patches as formal patches now)

This patch series tries to handle port binding, datapath binding
and ovs interface changes incrementally.

Below are the results of some testing I did with ovn-fake-multinode
setup

Test setup
------
 1. ovn-central fake node running OVN dbs and 2 compute nodes running
    ovn-controller.

 2. Before running the tests, used an existing OVN db with the below
resources
   No of logical switches     - 53
   No of logical ports        - 1256
   No of logical routers      - 9
   No of logical router ports - 56
   No of port groups          - 152
   No of logical flows        - 45447

   Port bindings on compute-1 -  19
   Port bindings on compute-2 -  18
   No of OF flows on compute-1 - 84996
   No of OF flows on compute-2 - 84901

 3. The test does the following
    - Creates 2 logical switches (one for each compute node) and connect to a
      logical router for each compute node.
    - 100 logical ports are created (50 per lswitch), a simple ACL is added and the address
      set is created for each port.
    - Each port is bound on the respective compute node and the test
      pings the IP of the port (from another port belonging to the same
      lswitch created earlier).


Below are the results with OVN master

Testing the same with fresh OVN dbs didn't show any improvements in the
timings.
