Unfortunately not right now, working towards a deadline.

If I could give more specific reproduction instructions, I could track 
it down and fix it.  :)   I do know that they were soft-rebooting 
instances and rebooting the controllers at around the same time.

The fact that there are no success or error logs in nova-compute.log 
makes me wonder if we somehow got stuck in self.driver.reboot().

Also, I'm kind of wondering what would happen if nova-compute was 
running reboot_instance() and we rebooted the controller at the same 
time.  reboot_instance() could time out trying to update the instance 
with the the new power state and a task_state of None.  Later on in 
_sync_power_states() we would update the power_state, but nothing would 
update the task_state.  I don't think this is what happened to us though 
since I'd expect to see logs of the timeout.
