Says that what it's been returned from the plugin function 'host_data'
(located in /etc/xapi.d/plugins/xenhost) is not what it is expected by
nova-compute. Nova-compute expects a dictionary and it's gets a str,
probably an error message.

Try to trace what's going on in the plugin code or log the content of
'data' available in host.py. Perhaps your nova and xenserver plugins
are not in sync?
