Should we skip the "post" call for OVSIntPort?  We know that these
ports are not physical ports, so they will not allow DHCP to complete.

Should we only delay bringing up the bridge port when DHCP is in use?
It seems nicer to bring up the bridge port immediately if we can.

Alexey: what do you think of these changes?

Thanks,

Ben.
