[openstack-dev] [nova] instances stuck with task_state of REBOOTING

I'm running a havana install, and during some testing I've managed to
get the system into a state where two instances are up and running but
are reporting a task_state of REBOOTING.
I can see the nova-api logs showing the soft-reboot request. I don't
see a corresponding nova-compute log indicating a successful reboot or
an error. I see a subsequent nova-api log for a requested soft-reboot
that gets a 409 response, presumably because it thinks it's still rebooting.
Has anyone seen something like this before?
I'm a bit surprised that there isn't an audit that cleans this up.
They've been sitting like this for hours. Does that count as a bug?
Presumably a power state of "RUNNING" should be enough to clear the
task_state.
