Public bug reported:

We had a neutron failure in our cloud, which lead to a bunch of VM's in
state ERROR.. we've repaired neutron but now we can't delete:

ERROR: Cannot 'forceDelete' while instance is in vm_state error (HTTP 409) (Request-ID: 
                  req-1c4a88c3-4ea1-45a8-b987-629a69b4af06)
