This patch adds the new mechanism for tagging drivers as supported or not as discussed in the TC mailing list post: http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-dev/2016-August/101589.html This adds the following in place: 1) add new supported flag in every driver 2) When a driver no longer meets the Cinder community testing standards the driver supported flag will be set to False. 3) When the volume manager starts it checks to see if the driver is flagged not supported. If the supported flag is False, then the volume manager will log an error and then check to see if the driver section configuration setting of 'enable_unsupported_driver = True'. If the conf setting is not enabled, the driver will not be started. a) When the driver maintainer conforms to the community testing standards, then a follow up patch will be submitted to re-enable the supported flag. b) If the driver maintainer continues to not support the community testing standards, then the Cinder community will revisit removing the driver in the following release. c) If the driver section in cinder.conf has the enable_unsupported_driver set, then the volume manager will start the driver, but log a warning on every driver call saying the driver isn't supported and may be removed in the future.
