Hi romil,

I think the main purpose of this DB field is to maintain the compatibility
in dataplane between OVS and LinuxBridge which, by default, don't use the
same UDP port for VXLAN.
It might be useful for a cloud admin which wants to run some nodes with LB
and some others with OVS.

I feel like your patch proposal will enable this scenario if the
tunnel_update() RPC message gets updated with the UDP port too.
