[Starlingx-discuss] [stx-nova] Stein branch rebase

[Dean Troyer]

I have done a preliminary rebase of the stx-nova Stein branch into
stx/stein.2 [0].  It is passing unit and functional tests but since
some changes were required from the current upstream reviews it really
needs to be checked out further.

* I started with upstream stable/stein acd2daa9 (current as of
yesterday noon-ish)
* Artom rebased the upstream NUMA patches in master so I pulled the
current patchset of those
  * There is a missing import in 635229 that is causing the test
failures, I inserted the  commit adding that inline in the PR
  * There were conflicts in 634605 and 634606 due to ongoing
development in master since stable/stein was branched.  I made the
obvious corrections, there may be more required that someone who is
not familiar with this code (me) would likely miss.

The final pep, unit and functional jobs are running under
https://review.opendev.org/#/c/656065/8 and I expect them to pass.

I do believe this requires the extraced placement to be merged so we
may not be able to test it in StarlingX until that is complete.  I am
hoping this can be tested with just replacing the Nova docker image
but I do not have the time to run through that.
