Bug Description

get_subnet_for_dvr should return proper gateway mac address in order for ovs agent to add proper flows for dvr interface on br-int.
commit e82b0e108332964c90e9d2cfaf3d334a92127155 added 'fixed_ips' parameter to the handler to filter gateway port of the subnet. However actual filtering was applied improperly which leads to wrong gateway mac being returned:

            if fixed_ips:
                filter = fixed_ips[0]
            else:
                filter = {'fixed_ips': {'subnet_id': [subnet],
                                        'ip_address':
                                        [subnet_info['gateway_ip']]}}

            internal_gateway_ports = self.plugin.get_ports(
                context, filters=filter)

            internal_port = internal_gateway_ports[0]
            subnet_info['gateway_mac'] = internal_port['mac_address']

get_ports() here actually returns _all_ ports so mac address of a random port is returned as 'gateway_mac'. In most cases it doesn't lead to any noticeable side effects but in some cases it may cause very weird behavior.

The case that we faced was:
 root@node-9:~# ovs-ofctl dump-flows br-int
 ...
 cookie=0x971c69a135b8ce1f, duration=23023.412s, table=2, n_packets=1339, n_bytes=131234, idle_age=19050, priority=4,dl_vlan=3556,dl_dst=fa:16:3e:da:53:f1 actions=strip_vlan,mod_dl_src:fa:16:3e:2c:24:86,output:6
 cookie=0x971c69a135b8ce1f, duration=31946.414s, table=2, n_packets=25320, n_bytes=2481408, idle_age=1, priority=4,dl_vlan=3556,dl_dst=fa:16:3e:2c:24:86 actions=strip_vlan,mod_dl_src:fa:16:3e:2c:24:86,output:5
 ...

fa:16:3e:2c:24:86 is mac address of a vm port and it was returned as gateway mac due to the bug. This vm was unreachable from other subnets connected to the same dvr router. However another vm on the same host and the same subnet was ok. It took a while to find out what was wrong :)

    Fix get_subnet_for_dvr() to return correct gateway mac

    Fix filters to get the right gateway port for a subnet.
    Wrong filters led to random port's mac being returned which may cause
    side effects. See bug for details.
