Public bug reported:

Description:
=====

Nova allow users to set free-form flavor extra-specs "hw:cpu_policy",
"hw:cpu_thread_policy". But  when boot an instance with that flavor,
nova will raise ValueError and result in HTTP 500.

Reproduce:
=====

# 1. create flavor 11 with an illegal extra_spec "hw:cpu_thread_policy=shared"
$ nova flavor-create test 11 128 1 3
$ nova flavor-key 11 set hw:cpu_policy=dedicated
$ nova flavor-key 11 set hw:cpu_thread_policy=shared

# 2. boot an instance from that malformed flavor 11
$ nova boot --image <image-id> --flavor 11 test

ERROR (ClientException): Unexpected API Error. Please report this at http://bugs.launchpad.net/nova/ and attach the Nova API log if possible.
