Delete the last port of an OpenStack router

When trying to delete an OpenStack subnet and the associated router, the command neutron router-delete complains because of the port allocated for the gateway and the port of the gateway cannot be removed with neutron port-delete because it is owned by the router. The solution is to clear the owner of the port with something like:

neutron port-update --device-owner clear 7f9685cb-794d-4847

and then delete the router. This is on Icehouse as provided by Enter Cloud Suite.
