Title:
  [ovn-vif] Issue with connecting PF representor of DPU to OVN

Status in ovn package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  We are using baremetal with Nvidia Bluefield 2 DPU with the goal of
  connecting the host(without any VMs) to the OVN overlay. But we can't
  connect PF representor to the overlay because as per docs[0] if we
  don't have VF representor but rather PF representor, as we want to
  connect the baremetal host directly to the OVN, we don't need to
  provide `vf-num` but the code[1] expects to have this key, otherwise
  the ovn-controller can't claim the port.
