Abort openvswitch startup script if ovsdb startup fails for
some reason. This helps in getting the system startup to NOT hang
indefinitely, as was seen in a recent report when ovsdb failed with
"I/O error: /etc/openvswitch/conf.db: failed to lock lockfile
(Resource temporarily unavailable)" and system remained in hung state
forever, unless manually rebooted from console.
