EVPN Ansible playbook for Cumulus Linux 3.2.1

I wrote a quick Ansible playbook for Cumulus EVPN. Cumulus EVPN is now GA (Generally Available) but the packages are still in the EA (early access repo) so it can be confusing if you are not used to Debian packaging system. This is nice that it won’t try to upgrade/reboot unless you have the wrong version. Feel free to read the documentation on Cumulus Networks website.
