Bug description:
  Hi,
  I try to launch 45 instances in parallel :
  nova boot --image ${image_id} --flavor ${flavor_id} --nic net-id=${net_id} --num-instances 45 jordan-internet

  Sometimes, nova fails to get the IP address of one or 2 instances :

  What's weird is that nova interfast-list is "correct" :

  So the problem lies in the SQL column 'network_info' of the table
  nova.instance_info. For a problematic instance, this column remains
  set as '[]' whereas for a 'correct' instance, the column contains some
  useful JSON data related to network

  I cannot reproduce this issue when I launch let's say 5 instances in
  parallel or if I launch 45 instances one after another.

  Any help would be very much appreciated. I don't fully understand what
  does compute/utils.py::get_nw_info_for_instance() nor
  network/quantumv2/api.py::_build_network_info_model() and
  network/quantumv2/api.py::allocate_for_instance() :(

  Thanks,
  Jordan

  Setup :
  Grizzly 2013.1.3
  Nova-api with osapi_compute_workers=10
  Quantum with openvswitch-plugin
