Neutron: MTU settings are now sane, so remove from DevStack
Neutron had a lot of work done during the Mitaka cycle to fix MTU
issues, so let's see if Neutron can stand on its own.
This commit reverts 06cfce37560243d22cd05b2c620be6702528a0b1

Non-Standard MTU on the Physical Network
----------------------------------------
-DevStack defaults to assume that the MTU on the physical network
-is 1500. A different MTU can be specified by adding the following to
-the `localrc` part of `local.conf` on each machine.
+Neutron by default uses a MTU of 1500 bytes, which is
+the standard MTU for Ethernet.
+
+A different MTU can be specified by adding the following to
+the Neutron section of `local.conf`. For example,
+if you have network equipment that supports jumbo frames, you could
+set the MTU to 9000 bytes by adding the following
::
- Q_ML2_PLUGIN_PATH_MTU=1500
+ [[post-config|/$Q_PLUGIN_CONF_FILE]]
+ global_physnet_mtu = 9000
