fedora: do not restart the service on a pkg upgrade
There is no reliable way to restore the previous networking state after a service restart. Many things like firewall configuration, traffic shaping, stacked devices, custom setups are completely out of OVS control. The OVS might be providing the network used for remote administration, so do not automatically restart the service during a package upgrade.
