Public bug reported:

Description
===========

_post_live_migration() on the destination host has a call to
self.network_api.get_instance_nw_info(), which eventually ends up
calling the Neutron REST API (via
nova.network.neutron.API._build_network_info_model()). Any exceptions in
that call are unhandled, meaning if Neutron fails we'll never reach
post_live_migration_at_destination(), which is where we update the
database to reflect the instance's new host and other housekeeping. IOW
words, if Neutron fails we'll be left with the instance actually running
on the destination, but still on the source according to the database.

Steps to reproduce
==================

1. Boot an instance.
2. Live migrate it.
3. While that's happening, Neutron explodes.

Expected result
===============

While it's dubiously reasonnable to expect VIFs to get cleaned up
correctly in such a case, Nova should at least correctly update the
database to reflect where the instance is actually running - the
destination.

Actual result
=============

The database shows the instance as running on the source.

Environment
===========

This is still a problem on master, but has been reported on OSP13/queens
