Title:
  Config option api_class erroneously overriden in __init__.py

Status in Cinder:
  In Progress
Status in OpenStack Compute (nova):
  In Progress
Status in OpenStack Compute (nova) newton series:
  Confirmed
Status in OpenStack Compute (nova) ocata series:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  When adding api_class = <barbican manager> in the nova.conf file for
  Newton, the nova/keymgr/__init__.py file has code that re-sets the
  value of api_class to default. This makes it impossible to use
  barbican with nova without hacking some workaround

  
  release: Newton

  
  to reproduce:

  1. set api_class in nova.conf
  2. restart nova with debug
  3. see that api_class is still default


  Workaround: commenting out lines 29 and 30 in __init__.py fixes the
  issue.
