        amfd: send commit message after async updates [#371] During switchover, 
if
        payload is being stopped, Standby Amfd crashes in avd_dec_warm_sync_rsp
        because of counter mismatch. Counter mismatch happens because newly Act 
Amfd
        updates its own counters in avd_node_failover in
        handle_event_in_failover_state, and sends it to its Standby peer, but it
        doesn't send AVSV_SYNC_COMMIT to its Standby peer. Once 
AVSV_SYNC_COMMIT is
        received by Standby Amfd, it processes those messages and updates its 
ounter
        and become in sync with Act Amfd. Since Act Amfd has updated counter and
        AVSV_SYNC_COMMIT is not sent, Standby Amfd has older counters. Now, if 
warm
        sync request comes at Act Amfd at this point of time, then Act Amfd 
fills
        updated counter and sends it to Standby Amfd. Now, Standby Amfd receives
        warn sync message and compares them with its own counter, which is 
older,
        because it has not processed those aync update as Act Amfd didn't send
        AVSV_SYNC_COMMIT message. Since counters will be out of sync and Standby
        Amfd will crash.

        So, if Act Amfd sends AVSV_SYNC_COMMIT message, Standby Amfd will 
process
        sync updates and will have its counters updated. This will avoid 
counters
        mismatch at Standby Amfd and will avoid the crash.

Testing Commands:
-----------------
Configure AVSV_HB_PERIOD as 30 sec in /etc/opensaf/amfd.conf at 
SC-2 and set NCS_MBCSV_OBJ_TMR_WSYNC as 10 sec by calling avsv_mbcsv_obj_set()
in both Amfd as below:

1. Start 2 controllers(SC-2 as Standby) and one payload.
2. When Standby sends HB message to Amfnd, then perform controller
   switchover and stop payload.

Newly Standby Amfd will crash.

Testing, Expected Results:
--------------------------
Standby Amfd will not crash.

Reviewer Checklist:
-------------------
[Submitters: make sure that your review doesn't trigger any checkmarks!]


Your checkin has not passed review because (see checked entries):

___ Your RR template is generally incomplete; it has too many blank entries
    that need proper data filled in.

___ You have failed to nominate the proper persons for review and push.

___ Your patches do not have proper short+long header

___ You have grammar/spelling in your header that is unacceptable.

___ You have exceeded a sensible line length in your headers/comments/text.

___ You have failed to put in a proper Trac Ticket # into your commits.

___ You have incorrectly put/left internal data in your comments/files
    (i.e. internal bug tracking tool IDs, product names etc)

___ You have not given any evidence of testing beyond basic build tests.
    Demonstrate some level of runtime or other sanity testing.

___ You have ^M present in some of your files. These have to be removed.

___ You have needlessly changed whitespace or added whitespace crimes
    like trailing spaces, or spaces before tabs.

___ You have mixed real technical changes with whitespace and other
    cosmetic code cleanup changes. These have to be separate commits.

___ You need to refactor your submission into logical chunks; there is
    too much content into a single commit.

___ You have extraneous garbage in your review (merge commits etc)

___ You have giant attachments which should never have been sent;
    Instead you should place your content in a public tree to be pulled.

___ You have too many commits attached to an e-mail; resend as threaded
    commits, or place in a public tree for a pull.

___ You have resent this content multiple times without a clear indication
    of what has changed between each re-send.

___ You have failed to adequately and individually address all of the
    comments and change requests that were proposed in the initial review.

___ You have a misconfigured ~/.hgrc file (i.e. username, email etc)

___ Your computer have a badly configured date and time; confusing the
    the threaded patch review.

___ Your changes affect IPC mechanism, and you don't present any results
    for in-service upgradability test.

___ Your changes affect user manual and documentation, your patch series
    do not contain the patch that updates the Doxygen manual.
