[Openstack-operators] Neutron DHCP failover bug

We've seen similar issues with three network nodes, 2 dhcp agents per and
automatic failover.  We were seeing spurious failovers on a regular basis
and we'd end up finding out about it because an instance would fail to get
a lease.  When we investigated, usually see the issue you describe.
Automatic failover is on by default in Kilo, so it makes this bug much
worse.  We ended up turning off automatic failover because of this issue.
There are other fixes for failover in Liberty that were never back ported
to Kilo.
