Bug Description

v6 service-chain with 3 transparent SIs in ECMP is configured. It is seen that ICMPv6 RA messages sent by vRouter are continuously looping and hogging network b/w and host CPU.

Here is our observation in a local setup:
Agent sends RA messages to all interfaces having v6, including the transparent SI. The RA message sent to the transparent SI reaches the other end VM resulting in multiple RA messages on the VMs. Agent need not send RA to the transparent SI interfaces to avoid this problem. This however wasnt resulting in a storm and the original issue needs to be recreated and checked.

Issue: RAs sent incorrectly if transperant SI exist

Root-cause & fix: Multiple router advertisements are seen on VMs if
there exists a transperant Service-Instance. This is due to transperant
forwarding of Router advertisements from left-interface to right-interface
of transperant SI. It is not required to send RAs to left and right
interfaces of SI so that current issue can be avoided.
