Bug Description

l2 population mechanism driver sends out fdb update to all registered agents when a new VM is spawned on an agent for a network (First port activated on current agent in this network)

It should only send out fdb updates to agents which have l2population enabled as this affects performance in large scale deployments.

Change abandoned by Kevin Benton (<email address hidden>) on branch: master
Review: https://review.openstack.org/407373
Reason: This seems to be targeting a very narrow use case for performance (mixed l2pop enabled/disabled environments) and it shouldn't be causing any side effects. If you are noticing failures without this, those are other bugs that should be addressed directly.

I would like to focus on eliminating the l2pop driver entirely instead.
