Public bug reported:

If an instance is booted with "nova boot --block-device
source=image,dest=local..." the instance ends up with no image_ref set
and an entry in the block_device_mappings table.  This confuses the
compute/api.py is_volume_backed_instance method which assumes that if
image_ref isn't set then the instance is volume backed.
