Public bug reported:

In an OpenStack Ussuri (both Focal and Bionic) cloud we discovered that
multicast traffic would fail between VMs on different hypervisors and
when using provider networks.  The following table reflects what we
found works/didn't work:

Based on this, I went looking at relevant changes upstream and found
that this appears to have been fixed upstream, but not backported to OVN
20.03:

https://github.com/ovn-
org/ovn/commit/97778ab3e422ac071faa67f9f477fd54977e9c04

I backported this patch to the version of OVN in Ussuri here:

  https://launchpad.net/~elmo/+archive/ubuntu/sf322809

These patched packages have been tested on a customer site and confirmed
to fix the problem.

I've attached the patch from the PPA for convenience.
