The Cisco Nexus sub-plugin is broken because the OVS plugin that is depends on
is broken. The Neutron Project switched from the OVS plugin to ML2 for testing
a long time ago, and the OVS plugin will be removed from the tree in Juno.
There are no plans to fix the OVS plugin, so the Cisco Nexus sub-plugin will
not be fixed either.

There are bugs[1,2] open to remove the deprecated plugins from the tree.
