CLOUDSTACK-9491: incorrect parsing of device list to find ethernet index of plugged NIC In VmwareResource, findRouterEthDeviceIndex() method find ethernet interface index given the mac address. This method is used, once a nic is plugged to determine ethernet interface. "/proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf" from the VR and looped through the devices to find the right ethernet interface. Howver current logic read it once, and loops through the device list. Its observerd device may not show up '/proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf' immediatly once NIC is plugged in the VM from vCenter. Fix ensured, while waiting for 15 sec in the loop, read the latest content from /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf , so that right device list is processed. Manual tested VPC scenarios of adding new tiers which uses findRouterEthDeviceIndex, to find the guest/public network ethernet index.
