Title:
  L3 agent not always properly update floatingip status on server

Status in neutron:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  commit c44506bfd60b2dd6036e113464f1ea682cfaeb6c introduced an
  optimization to not send floating ip status update when status didn't
  change: so if server returned floating ip as ACTIVE we don't need to
  update it's status after successfull processing.

  This migh be wrong in DVR case: when floatingip's associated fixed port is moved from one host to another, the notification is sent to both l3 agents on compute nodes (old and new). Here is what happens next:
   - old agent receives notification and requests router info from server
   - same for new agent
   - server returns router info without floating ip to old agent
   - server returns router info with floating ip to new agent. The status of floating ip is ACTIVE.
   - old agent removes floating ip and sends status update so server puts floatingip to DOWN state
   - new agent adds floatingip and doesn't send status update since it didn't changed from agent's point of view
   - floating ip stays in DOWN state though it's actually active

  The fix would be to always update status of floating ip if agent
  actually applies it.
