Bug Description

The API doc properly states that device is ignored at volume_attach [1] in case of libvirt driver but the same note is missing from the server create bdm:device_name parameter. However libvirt driver ignores the device names in both cases [3]

    api-ref: note that boot ignores bdm:device_name

    The volume_attach case was documented properly but the nova boot
    case missed the note after I76a7cfd995db6c04f7af48ff8c9acdd55750ed76
    was merged.
