As a workaround to unblock the gate, Elod proposed to cap the pip in devstack for now as we
are not sure of how to fix and how much work needed and I agree with that step.

Due to grenade jobs failure, we need to apply this workaround on all stable branches until Stable/ussuri.
Stable/train and lower branches are already capped with pip10[1].

These are the patches proposed: 
- https://review.opendev.org/q/I1feed4573820436f91f8f654cc189fa3a21956fd

Also, I filled a bug in devstack to track this further:
