Title:
  [RFE] Add new admin_state_up option 'auto' for SR-IOV VF port

Status in neutron:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Currently, there are only 2 options True/False for port attribute
  'admin_state_up', underneath they are mapped to 'ip link set <dev>
  enable/disable'. However, in case of SR-IOV VF port the state can be
  set to 'auto', which means the VF link state can follow that of PF.
  When PF link goes down, VF link state will go down as well. And this
  functionality is useful when the VMs use the link state as a trigger
  of its own HA mechanism.

  Therefore the expected change is to add a 3rd option admin_state_up
  'auto' for neutron SR-IOV VF port.
