Public bug reported: Port extension "uplink_status_propagation" enables the creation of a port child register "portuplinkstatuspropagation". This register contains the flag "propagate_uplink_status". This flag is set by default as True when a port is created.
The problem this bug presents is with the existing ports before enabling the extension. Those ports don't have any "portuplinkstatuspropagation" register associated. The extension will populate the port dictionary with the value of "propagate_uplink_status"; in case of not having this flag, the value will be "False". This bug proposes something similar to [2]. This patch set the default value of the flag to "True" for new ports. In this case, the proposal will affect existing ports **without** "portuplinkstatuspropagation" registers: if the Neutron DB port does not have this flag, return a "True" value. The aim of this proposal aligns with [2][3] goal, if an admin enables this feature, it is because he/she wants to have this feature enabled in all ports.
