[Bug 1567461] [NEW] Possible race when allocating local port for serial console

 

Public bug reported:

Nova binds a port to verify its availability but immediately after to
close the socket other instance can have also tested that same port
and so the method will return the same port for two different
instances.

We should to do not let that situation to happen
