Title:
  nova raises InvalidBDMBootSequence when boot index 0

Status in OpenStack Compute (Nova):
  Expired

Bug description:
  I tried to boot server from volume using API. The following 'block_device_mapping_v2' argument
  {
    "boot_index": "0",
    "uuid": image_obj,
    "source_type": "image",
    "volume_size": flavor_obj.disk,
    "destination_type": "volume",
    "delete_on_termination": False
  }

  Nova raised InvalidBDMBootSequence exception. I checked  nova sources and found that _subsequent_list returns None,
  when I use boot index 0:

  """
      def _validate_bdm(self, context, instance, instance_type, all_mappings):
          def _subsequent_list(l):
              return all(el + 1 == l[i + 1] for i, el in enumerate(l[:-1]))

          # Make sure that the boot indexes make sense
          boot_indexes = sorted([bdm['boot_index']
                                 for bdm in all_mappings
                                 if bdm.get('boot_index') is not None
                                 and bdm.get('boot_index') >= 0])

          if 0 not in boot_indexes or not _subsequent_list(boot_indexes):
              raise exception.InvalidBDMBootSequence()
  """

  Maybe I don't know use case, but when I use boot_index 1, server
  boots, but two block devices attached instead of one: /dev/vda and
  /dev/vdb. Both point to the same device.

  
  P.S. I use OpenStack Juno and cinder with LVM.
