    Add "max-rate" value to minimum bandwidth rules
    
    OVS translates the QoS and associated queue registers,
    attached to a port, into "tc" linux-htb classfull traffic
    shaper, applied on the port.
    
    OVS creates a "tc" root class on the port device. On top of
    this root class, the queues are represented as child "tc"
    classes. In order to define a "min-rate" value ("tc rate"),
    a "max-rate" value ("tc ceil") must be provided and higher than
    "min-rate".
    
    By default, OVS agent QoS minimum rules do not have a "max-rate"
    defined. Before this patch, any minimum bandwidth rule was
    limiting the maximum rate to 100Mbit/s, that is the default value
    set in "tc ceil". This patch provides the maximum "max-rate" value
    for any minimum bandwidth rule.

Title:
  [OVS][QoS] Minimum bandwidth backend enforcement does not provide max-
  rate values

Status in neutron:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Related Bugzilla: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2093739

  For minimum bandwidth, the OVS agent is create a QoS policy assigned
  to the physical bridge interface. Any new port with a min-bw QoS rule
  will create a queue attached to this QoS policy. OVS creates the
  corresponding "tc" linux-htb policy in the interface, creating a root
  class. Each new queue will be represented as a new child class on top
  of the parent one (that represents the QoS policy).

  The problem we have, as commented in [1], is that we are not providing
  any "ceil" value (max-rate) in the parent class or the child ones. If
  no "ceil" value is provided, 100Mbits/s will be assigned. Any child
  class with a higher "rate" (min-rate) than "ceil" won't be able to set
  this value.
