--- upgrade: - | Default value of config option ``CONF.placement.region`` is updated from ``RegionOne`` to empty string. As per tempest design, if tempest conf is not having any region for a service then identity region should be used. In case of placement the default value is "RegionOne" which is considered as placement region if region missing in tempest conf. In order to have identity region to be used as default we need to change to empty string for placement service. Empty string can be seen being used in other services like volume, image etc.
