The bug can cause ovs-vswitchd to crash (due to assert) when it is
set up with a passive controller connection. Since only active
connections are kept, the passive connection status update should be
ignored and not trigger asserts.

Fixes: 85c55772a453 ("bridge: Fix controller status update")

v1->v2:  Set defaults when cinfo is NULL.
