    Disable DF bit for tunneled installations

    Due to the way how OVS handles GRE tunnels
    it tries to copy DF flag to wrapping GRE
    packet header, thus making it impossible
    for packets of more than 1430 bytes size
    to be transfered through regular interfaces
    this breaks almost all applications. Thus
    we are setting dont_fragment option to false
    and we will also need to make ovs agent
    set df_inherit flag to this option for
    OVS versions that support df_inherit flag

    We will also need to document that user should
    extend his MTU size to reasonable one according
    to http://docs.openstack.org/icehouse/install-guide/install/yum/content/neutron-ml2-network-node.html
    in order to not get performance issues.
