One of the things we don't test on the devstack side at all is that
clean.sh takes us back down to baseline, which I think was the real
issue here - https://review.openstack.org/#/c/141891/

I would not be opposed to adding cleanup testing at the end of any
devstack run that ensures everything is shut down correctly and cleaned
up to a base level.
