[stein][neutron] gratuitous arp

Hello, I am trying to apply suggested patches but after applying some
python error codes do not allow neutron services to start.
Since my python skill is poor, I wonder if that patches are for python3.
I am on centos 7 and (probably???) patches are for centos 8.
I also wonder if it possible to upgrade a centos 7 train to centos 8 train
without reinstalling all nodes.
This could be important for next release upgrade (ussuri, victoria and so
on).
