This change fixes the capability for a XenServer/XCP hypervisor to boot instances from an iscsi volume running on Cinder. This patch takes into account that Cinder can be configured with an iscsi back-end, instead of a xensm one, where keys like sr_uuid are not being specified. It works through the magic of determining the SR, and the vdi associated with the iscsi target and lun. This patch also does a bit of clean-up of code/comments that no longer apply. Addresses bug #1087308 Change-Id: Ie7d65eeb965b3468e4407981788725e2b43bff5e
