This patch is the first one of a series of patches improving how the L3 agents update the router HA state to the Neutron server. This patch partially reverts the previous patch [1]. When the batch notifier sends events, it calls the callback method passed during the initialization, in this case AgentMixin.notify_server. The batch notifier spawns a new thread in charge of sending the notifications and then wait the specified "batch_interval" time. If the callback method is not synchronous with the notify thread execution (what [1] implemented), the thread can finish while the RPC client is still sending the HA router states. If another HA state update is received, then both updates can be executed at the same time. It is possible then that a new router state can be overwritten with an old one still not sent or processed. The batch notifier is refactored, to improve what initally was implemented [2] and then updated [3]. Currently, each new event thread can update the "pending_events" list. Then, a new thread is spawned to process this event list. This thread decouples the current execution from the calling thread, making the event processing a non-blocking process. But with the current implementation, each new process will spawn a new thread, synchronized with the previous and new ones (using a synchronized decorator). That means, during the batch interval time, the system can have as many threads waiting as new events received. Those threads will end secuentially when the previous threads end the batch interval sleep time. Instead of this, this patch receives and enqueue each new event and allows only one thread to be alive while processing the event list. If at the end of the processing loop new events are stored, the thread will process then.
