Public bug reported:

Problem description
===================
In the Open vSwitch  neutron agent, ip_lib is currently used to list the bridges.
as userspace only vswiches do not create bridge local ports in the kernel ip_lib will not correctly detect the bridge configuration.

Proposed Change
==============
use of ip_lib blocks reuse of the Open vSwitch agent with userspace only open vSwitchs implementations.
to enable this use case ovs_lib.get_bridges should be used instead.

** Affects: neutron
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: New

** Summary changed:

- Open vSwitch Agent should use ovs_lib to list bridgesnot ip_lib
+ Open vSwitch Agent should use ovs_lib to list bridges not ip_lib

** Description changed:
