Title:
  Instance delete causing port leak

Status in OpenStack Compute (nova):
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Nova can cause a neutron port leak after deleting an instance.

  If neutron has the port binding extension installed, then nova uses admin credentials to create the port during instance create:
  https://github.com/openstack/nova/blob/master/nova/network/neutronv2/api.py#L537

  However, during instance delete, nova always uses the user creds:
  https://github.com/openstack/nova/blob/master/nova/network/neutronv2/api.py#L739

  Depending on the neutron policy settings, this can leak ports in
  neutron.

  Can someone explain this behavior?

  We are running on nova kilo.
