Balazs Gibizer b1a0aee1ab Allow enabling cpu_power_management with 0 dedicated CPUs
The CPU power management feature of the libvirt driver, enabled with
[libvirt]cpu_power_management, only manages dedicated CPUs and does not
touch share CPUs. Today nova-compute refuses to start if configured
with [libvirt]cpu_power_management=true [compute]cpu_dedicated_set=None.
While this is functionally not limiting it does limit the possibility to
independently enable the power management and define the
cpu_dedicated_set. E.g. there might be a need to enable the former in
the whole cloud in a single step, while not all nodes of the cloud will
have dedicated CPUs configured.

This patch removes the strict config check. The implementation already
handles each PCPU individually, so if there are an empty list of PCPUs
then it does nothing.

In the unfortunate event that bugs are discovered, they should be reported to the appropriate bug tracker. If you obtained the software from a 3rd party operating system vendor, it is often wise to use their own bug tracker for reporting problems. In all other cases use the master OpenStack bug tracker, available at:

Developers

For information on how to contribute to Nova, please see the contents of the CONTRIBUTING.rst.

Any new code must follow the development guidelines detailed in the HACKING.rst file, and pass all unit tests.
