Public bug reported:

When nova creates a hypervisor from an Ironic node, the hypervisor is
created with hypervisor_hostname set to the UUID of the Ironic node.
This is inconvenient, as it's not very human-friendly. It would be nice
if the hypervisor_hostname attribute could be set to the node's name, or
at least some combination, such as `node.name + '-' + node.uuid`. The
relevant line is here:

https://github.com/openstack/nova/blob/stable/kilo/nova/virt/ironic/driver.py#L290

This is on CentOS 7, and yum shows me as running version 2015.1.1.dev18
for all nova packages.

I tried just changing the line above to read `'hypervisor_hostname':
str(node.name),`, but this caused no hypervisors to get created,
although nothing crashed, which makes it seem like there's more that
needs to be done than just changing that line.
