[Bug 1814882] [NEW] Bandwidth limits specified in flavors are not applied to generic vHost User interfaces

 

Public bug reported:

Libvirt supports setting bandwidth limits for various VIF types.

https://github.com/openstack/nova/blob/bcfd2439bab7cfad942d7e6a187df6edb1d1bf09/nova/virt/libvirt/vif.py#L576

This is supported by pretty much all VIF types including vHost User
interfaces defined by os-vif. However, generic vHost user interfaces do
not set this field. This is a mistake and should be corrected.
