I'd like to request an exception for[0]. This is an important - quite
invasive - cinder fix. The issue raises when the driver is not
initialized correctly - or goes down - which makes volumes operations
on that node fail without updating the volume status correctly.

I hesitated a bit before proposing it for stable/havana but I believe
that it can be a show stopper in some cases and most importantly it
causes a lot of frustrations to the final users. Several bug reports
have been filed because of this.

After talking to John, Eric and Huang, we agreed it is a good
backport.
