Bug description:
  This is a separation from the discussion in this bug
  https://bugs.launchpad.net/neutron/+bug/1815989

  There comment https://bugs.launchpad.net/neutron/+bug/1815989/comments/52 goes through in
  detail the flow on a Train deployment using neutron 15.1.0 (controller) and 15.3.0 (compute) and nova 20.4.0

  There is a race condition where nova live-migration will wait for
  neutron to send the network-vif-plugged event but when nova receives
  that event the live migration is faster than the OVS l2 agent can bind
  the port on the destination compute node.

  This causes the RARP frames sent out to update the switches ARP tables
  to fail causing the instance to be completely unaccessible after a
  live migration unless these RARP frames are sent again or traffic is
  initiated egress from the instance.

  See Sean's comments after for the view from the Nova side. The correct
  behavior should be that the port is ready for use when nova get's the
  external event, but maybe that is not possible from the neutron side,
  again see comments in the other bug.
