To add:
    I was looking at Nova code and it seems there is a framework for
cleanup using the terminate calls.. IIUC this works as libvirt calls
terminate on Nova instance when the VM is shutting down/destroying, hence
terminate seems to be a good place to do cleanup on Nova side.. something
similar is missing on Cinder side and __del__ way of cleanup isn't working
as I posted above.
