Bug description:
  On 2015-05-28, our Landscape auto-upgraded packages on two of our
  OpenStack clouds.  On both clouds, but only on some compute nodes, the
  upgrade of openvswitch-switch and corresponding downtime of
  ovs-vswitchd appears to have triggered some sort of race condition
  within neutron-plugin-openvswitch-agent leaving it in a broken state;
  any new instances come up with non-functional network but pre-existing
  instances appear unaffected.  Restarting n-p-ovs-agent on the affected
  compute nodes is sufficient to work around the problem.

  The packages Landscape upgraded (from /var/log/apt/history.log):

  From /var/log/neutron/openvswitch-agent.log:

  2015-05-28 14:24:18.336 47866 ERROR neutron.agent.linux.ovsdb_monitor
  [-] Error received from ovsdb monitor: ovsdb-client:
  unix:/var/run/openvswitch/db.sock: receive failed (End of file)

  Looking at a stuck instances, all the right tunnels and bridges and
  what not appear to be there:

  root@vector:~# ip l l | grep c-3b
  460002: qbr7ed8b59c-3b: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc noqueue state UP mode DEFAULT group default

  root@vector:~# ovs-vsctl list-ports br-int | grep c-3b
  qvo7ed8b59c-3b
  root@vector:~# 

  But I can't ping the unit from within the qrouter-${id} namespace on
  the neutron gateway.  If I tcpdump the {q,t}*c-3b interfaces, I don't
  see any traffic.
