    improvement: systemvm slow operations

    On our setup we had issues with vrouters when a large number of VM were 
created at once.
    
    The vrouters try to arping the gateway (to refresh the ARP cache I 
suppose), but in some case it take too much time and the vrouters got killed 
for being unresponsive.
    
    The following patches attempt to solve this by:
    
    * a96ab18f, 8908371b defensive fix, maybe a bug?
    * fce10c55 do not block on arping command
    
    This patch has been running for a month on our test environment and seems 
to solve the initial problem.

    systemvm: ips.json without gateway
    
    The file "/etc/cloudstack/ips.json" is generated with a gateway at
    "None" even when the gateway is present in the input "cmd_line.json".

    systemvm: do not arping None
    
    If the gateway is None, don't bother arping it.
