Public bug reported:

This changeset
https://git.openstack.org/cgit/openstack/nova/commit/?id=ed9f1b8b43161c1bc637022aaf67fb5f7a21b0f6

forces iscsi_iface to be one out of ('be2iscsi', 'bnx2i', 'cxgb3i',
'cxgb4i', 'qla4xxx', 'ocs'), this is incorrect. This is confusing
iscsi_transport, an open-iscsi parameter with iscsi_iface, which is the
generated iface file actually needed for iscsi_iface support.

This also directly contradicts the explanation given right below the
parameter, and breaks iface support unless you create an iface with the
same name as the transport when the default naming scheme will always
follow 'transport_name.hwaddress'

I had previously pushed another changeset meant to avoid the very same
(https://github.com/openstack/nova/commit/3b8a2cf781d43d0b6937ec66aff5f37657f625ed)
which also seems to have been ignored.
