Title:
  boot baremetal server which has multi-interface will randomly choose
  baremetal server interface

Status in OpenStack Compute (nova):
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  Description
  ===========
  In my ironic environment, my baremetal node has two interface, we will 
register two ports with two macs into ironic. When tenant user boot baremetal 
server with one network, nova will randomly choose the one of the macs, 
baremetal server will randomly use eth0 / eth1 as its interface.


  Steps to reproduce
  ==================
  1. register baremetal server with multi interface.
  2. boot a ironic server with one network


  Expected result
  ===============
  use eth0 as its interface

  
  Actual result
  =============
  some of the ironic nodes will use eth0, but some will choose eth1.

  
  Environment
  ===========
  Newton, but this problem also existed in latest master.

  
  Analysis
  ===========
  We think the problem is because nova is using set for available_macs in 
allocate_for_instance (nova/network/neutronv2/api.py) . typically, eth0 will 
has small mac compare with eth1.
  So maybe we can use list for available_macs, and use small mac first to 
create port.
