Title:
  bad default for my_ip if 8.8.8.8 is unreachable

Status in OpenStack Compute (Nova):
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  The detection method for the configuration option my_ip seems to
  assume that 8.8.8.8 will always be routable from a compute host and
  chooses 127.0.0.1 as a fall back if there is no route to the google
  DNS (8.8.8.8)

  See here:

  https://github.com/openstack/nova/blob/master/nova/netconf.py#L38

  Falling back to 127.0.0.1 doesn't seem useful, so I am wondering if
  there is a better option here.

  Some pdb information while debugging:

  > /usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/nova/netconf2.py(40)_get_my_ip()
  -> csock.connect(('8.8.8.8', 80))
  (Pdb) n
  error: (101, 'Network is unreachable')
  > /usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/nova/netconf2.py(40)_get_my_ip()
  -> csock.connect(('8.8.8.8', 80))
