Public bug reported:

Mellanox networking solution requires knowledge of physical network during VIF plugging in nova.
Temporary work-around for Icehouse release was to use binding:profile to pass it.
During Juno release, patch to use binding:vif_details was added both on neutron and nova code.  
vif _details dictionary on port:binding is used to pass physical_network information to nova and nova code gets physical network from vif_details.
It is about time to remove the work-around from the neutron code.
