    Don't add arp responder for non tunnel network port
    
    When the vlan and vxlan both exist in env, and l2population
    and arp_responder are enabled, if we update a port's ip address
    from vlan network, there will be arp responder related flows
    added into br-tun, this will cause too many arp reply for
    one arp request, and vm connections will be unnormal.

Title:
  arp responder will be created for a vlan port when port ip changed

Status in neutron:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  When the env contains both vlan and vxlan networks, if we enable l2pop and arp_responder function, when we update a vlan port's ip(VM1), the arp responder for this port will be created in br-tun.
  When other compute‘s vm(VM2) ping VM1, the first arp destination is ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff, so every compute node will get this arp request, and because of arp responder, they will all create a arp reply to the VM2, all these arp reply packets will confuse physical switch, this will cause some network connection problem.
