Bug description:
  [Impact]
  Patches on iproute2 changed the rounding math for the burst parameter and this made openvswitch autopkgtests fail as they expect specific values for the burst parameter.
  A patch for iproute2 is being backported in LP #2125448 that includes this behavior change and autopkgtests are failing because of this issue.

  [Test Plan]
  Running openvswitch autopkgtests without this patch should fail with the updated version of iproute2. After applying this patch tests should run successfully.
  The tests have to be run using qemu as it needs full virtualization. For this first an image has to be created using:

  # autopkgtest-buildvm-ubuntu-cloud -r <release>

  That should create an image file called
  autopkgtest-<release>-amd64.img

  Then, assuming that the openvswitch version to test is downloaded on
  the openvswitch folder, the test is run by this command:

  # autopkgtest openvswitch/ -U -- qemu autopkgtest-<release>-amd64.img

  To test with the iproute2 package in proposed from LP #2125448 the
  command should be:

  # autopkgtest openvswitch/ -U --apt-pocket=proposed=src:iproute2 --
  qemu autopkgtest-<release>-amd64.img

  [Where problems could occur]
  The change in the tests makes them less restrictive with respect to the exact value of the burst parameter so every test that passed the previous tests should still pass them after the update
