Title:
  Spawning multiple instances can cause race conditions with nbd

Status in OpenStack Compute (Nova):
  Fix Released
Status in OpenStack Compute (nova) grizzly series:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Spawning a number of instances using a single request (or number of
  requests close enough to each other) can result in the same nbd device
  chosen for more than one instance. For example, see the log of a
  collision below. The python threads switch after the device is
  selected and qemu-nbd is spawned, but before the qemu-nbd gets a
  chance to connect and create a /sys/block/nbd*/pid file.

  Solution is most likely to put a lock around the _inner_get_dev() part
  of NbdMount.
