Bug Description

When doing a block live migration with volumes attached, the libvirt drive-mirror operation tries to sync all the disks attached to the domain, even if they are external volumes. It should only do so for the ephemeral storage, so we need to be able to pass that information.

Based on the comments in the proposed patch:

https://review.openstack.org/125616

the root cause of this issue requires enhancement in libvirt before anything can be done about it in nova. So, marking this as Opinion/Wishlist as an enhancement that can be addressed if libvirt is first enhanced.
