[Bug 1328539] [NEW] Fixed IP allocation doesn't clean up properly on failure

 

Public bug reported:

If fixed IP allocation fails, for example because nova's network
interfaces got renamed after a reboot, nova will loop continuously
trying, and failing, to create a new instance. For every attempted spawn
the instance will end up with an additional fixed IP allocated to it.
This is because the code is associating the IP, but not disassociating
it if the function fails.

** Affects: nova
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: New
