Bug Description

run_as_root must set to False by default if there is no run_as_root in the kwargs.
The reason is you cannot raise every command to run as root.
It must be false by default, for some special commands that already be defined in manila rootwrap filter file, it can run as root.

The original error message is "Stderr: u'/usr/local/bin/manila-rootwrap: Unauthorized command: locate /bin/hdfs (no filter matched)\n'."
It looks like locate command wasn't included in share.filters file.
I also don't think it is a good way to find a command, so I register another bug to fix: "https://bugs.launchpad.net/manila/+bug/1481568"

    Fix bug to run command as root in HDFS driver

    A complete proposal is like below steps:
    1. Assume the HDFS user in manila.conf has the authority to launch hdfs command.
    2. Set run_as_root to False if there is no argument by default, all the cases in
    Manila HDFS Driver don't need be a root to run hdfs command.
    3. If root is required, please deliver run_as_root parameter and set it as True
