Description of PR

Summary:
When patching the DUT to remove t0 peers, the test fails the DB comparison due to extra entries being added to APP_DB.

These entries only get added when generic patcher in SONiC (config apply-patch) is used to remove t0 from the DUT.

Ideally this should be fixed in config apply-patch code. This PR is a workaround for the issue since the extra entries are harmless and does not get used.

Fixes # (issue)

Approach

What is the motivation for this PR?

configlet/test_add_rack.py is failing.

How did you do it?

Adding extra entries to ignore. These entries seems to be harmless and not used. However it is not understood why it is being added by config apply-patch.

Again, ideally this should be fixed in config apply-patch code. This PR is a workaround for the issue since the extra entries are harmless and does not get used.

How did you verify/test it?

Test no longer fails

Any platform specific information?

Broadcom platform is used for testing.

Supported testbed topology if it's a new test case?
