Handle tokens created and quickly revoked with insufficient timestamp precision
In the event that the revocation event is created at the exact same
timestamp as the token's creation timestamp, the event's issued_before
will equal the token's issued_at and will thus not be revoked (according
to the current code).
This is much more likely to occur when a token's issue_at timestamp is
rounded to whole seconds (rather than carrying microsecond level
precision), as they are with Fernet and MySQL.

Title:
token revocations not always respected when using fernet tokens
Status in Keystone:
Fix Committed
Status in OpenStack Security Advisory:
Won't Fix
Bug description:
A simple test that shows that fernet tokens are not always being
invalidated.
Simple test steps:
1) gets a token
2) deletes a token
3) tries to validate the deleted token
When I run this in production on 10 tokens, I get about a 20% success
rate on the token being detected as invalid, 80% of the time, keystone
tells me the token is valid.
I have validated that the token is showing in the revocation event
table.
I've tried a 5 second delay between the calls which did not change the
behavior.
My current script (below) will look for 204 and 404 to show failure
and will wait forever. I've let it wait over 5 minutes, it seems to me
that either keystone knows immediately that the token is invalid or
not at all.
I do not have memcache enabled on these nodes.
The same test has a 100% pass rate with UUID tokens.
