  Dear bug triager. This bug was created since a commit was marked with DOCIMPACT.
  Your project "openstack/neutron" is set up so that we directly report the documentation bugs against it. If this needs changing, the docimpact-group option needs to be added for the project. You can ask the OpenStack infra team (#openstack-infra on freenode) for help if you need to.

      iptables: stop 'fixing' kernel sysctl bridge firewalling knobs
      
      Those are different on different kernel versions, and have reasonable
      default values on all newer kernel versions, including RHEL. We
      nevertheless made devstack to set those in the past; now I propose to
      clean the code from neutron tree and leave it up to deployment tools to
      fix in an unlikely case the system has broken default values.
      
      Now that iptables firewall code does not trigger sysctl, we can also
      remove this filter from the corresponding rootwrap .filters file.
      
      DocImpact make sure deployment docs mention the expected sysctl knob
                values.
