    kvm: add support for booting uefi instances
    
    In order to boot UEFI instances successfully, the OVMF image
    must be installed and located at the path that is hardcoded
    inside Nova.
    
    This patch takes care of installing the OVMF images and sets
    up links to point towards the hardcoded path for operating
    systems that don't install at the expected path.

Title:
  nova is looking for OVMF file no longer provided by CentOS 7.6

Status in OpenStack Compute (nova):
  New
Status in openstack-ansible:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  In nova/virt/libvirt/driver.py the code looks for a hardcoded path
  "/usr/share/OVMF/OVMF_CODE.fd".

  It appears that centos 7.6 has modified the OVMF-20180508-3 rpm to no
  longer contain this file.  Instead it now seems to be named
  /usr/share/OVMF/OVMF_CODE.secboot.fd

  This will break the ability to boot guests using UEFI.
