Public bug reported:

This came up here:

https://review.openstack.org/#/c/116837/3/nova/api/openstack/compute/plugins/v3/servers.py

The compute API's _validate_bdm method can raise up
CinderConnectionFailed or InvalidBDM exceptions and they aren't handled
in the server create nova API extension.  They'll just be turned into
500 errors in the response.

InvalidBDM should probably be a 400.

CinderConnectionFailed should probably remain a 500 since we could fail
that due to cinder being down (503), auth issues (401 or 403), etc.  The
reason for the failure is in that exception so it's not as big a deal.

** Affects: nova
