[Bug 1398566] [NEW] Policies may be loaded prematurely, causing failed policy checks

 

Public bug reported:

A race condition exists where policies may be loaded and processed
before the neutron extensions  are loaded and the RESOURCE_ATTRIBUTE_MAP
is populated. This causes problems in system behaviour dependent on
neutron specific policy checks. Policies are loaded at on demand, and if
the call instigating the loading of policies happens prematurely this
can  cause certain neutron specific policy checks to not be setup
properly as the required mappings from policy to check implementations
has not been established.
