Title:
  RFE: Open vSwitch vhost-user support via fast path detection

Status in networking-6wind:

  In Progress

Bug description:
  Open vSwitch vhost-user support via fast path detection

  Fast path technology is a user-space stack for high performance packets
  offloading the Linux networking functions: IPv4/IPv6 routing, linux bridge, 
OVS, iptables, conntrack...

  To benefit from the offloading, a VM needs to use vhost-user instead of
  vhost-net backend for virtio interfaces.

  As a consequence, we have a forked ML2 mechanism driver called ovs-fp.

  We propose to merge this modification into the neutron tree, instead of
  maintaining a fork.

  Spec: https://review.openstack.org/#/c/241144/
