Title:
  network not always cleaned up when spawning VMs

Status in OpenStack Compute (nova):
  Confirmed
Status in OpenStack Compute (nova) ocata series:
  Confirmed
Status in OpenStack Compute (nova) pike series:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Here are the scenario:
  1). Nova scheduler/conductor selects a nova-compute A to spin a VM
  2). Nova compute A tries to spin the VM, but the process failed, and generates a RE-SCHEDULE exception.
  3). in re-schedule exception, only when retry is none, network resource is properly cleaned up. when retry is not none, the network is not cleaned up, the port information still stays with the VM.
  4). Nova condutor was notified about the failure. It selects nova-compute-B to spin VM.
  5). nova compute B spins up VM successfully. However, from the instance_info_cache, the network_info showed two ports allocated for VM, one from the origin network A that associated with nova-compute A nad one from network B that associated with nova compute B.

  To simulate the case, raise a fake exception in
  _do_build_and_run_instance in nova-compute A:
