Title:
  compute api delete race condition part 2

Status in OpenStack Compute (Nova):
  Invalid

Bug description:
  If a compute_api.delete() command comes in at about the same time that
  a compute_manager.run_instance() is happening for that instance, it is
  possible that the compute manager will not notice that the instance
  has been deleted from the database when it goes to assign the host.
  Thus, resources might be allocated unnecessarily (and in rarer cases
  the deleted status might actually be overwritten as if it had never
  happened.)

  This is a corollary to bug 998117
