Hey Russell,

Thx for the comments, actually, I recently realized that we can simply the
gateway part of ovn-sb schema based on the nature of vtep schema.  Also,
there is apparently a lot of complications in updating the vtep schema info
(like the learned macs) to ovn-sb or even ovn-nb.  I have lot of thoughts
will
meet Ben, maybe Justin in person this afternoon and discuss.  Let me
update more after that~.

Thanks,
Alex Wang,
