Title:
  volume attachment to windows VM, mount point is always linux format

Status in OpenStack Compute (nova):
  Expired

Bug description:
  When attach a volume to a windows instance(without specify the device
  name), this mount point will be always linux format such as /dev/sdb
  from CLI or the Horizon GUI.

  Checking the openstack nova, looks it seems only allow the device name
  with /dev/* format regardless of any type of instances

  https://github.com/openstack/nova/blob/master/nova/block_device.py#L562

  Just want to query if any consideration for this design? Or some
  interfaces provided from virt driver layer for the devices name
  format?
