    Fix request timeout errors during calls to NSX controller

    Sometimes two correlated exception traces are observed in
    the server log for the Neutron Server backed by NSX:
    RequestTimeout (The nsx request has timed out) and
    OperationalError (Lock wait timeout exceeded). This is
    generally described by Guru Salvatore Orlando as the,
    and I quote, the "infamous eventlet-mysql deadlock".

    This patch tries to address the issue by adding a
    cooperative yield in the nsx client code (it’s a good idea
    to call sleep(0) occasionally in any case) and also by
    avoiding the unnecessary spawning of another Greenthread
    within a call that is already executed in Greenthred
    itself.
