Bug description:
  [Impact]

    Instance resize does not work if the target host has a cached copy of
    the root disk. The resize will silently fail but be displayed as
    successful in Nova.

  [Test Case]

    1 deploy nova-compute with RBDImageBackend enabled
    2 boot an instance from a QCOW2 image (to guarantee it gets downloaded for reformat prior to re-upload to ceph)
    3 nova resize using flavor with larger root disk
    4 wait for instance resize migration to complete
    5 verify root disk actually resized by checking /proc/partitions in vm
    6 do nova resize-confirm
    7 repeat steps 3-6

  [Regression Potential]

   * None

  == original description below ==

  tested with nova trunk commit eb860c2f219b79e4f4c5984415ee433145197570

  Configured Nova to use rbd disk backend

  nova.conf

  [libvirt]
  images_type=rbd

  instances booted successfully and instance disks are in rbd pools,
  when perform a nova resize  to an existing instance,  memory and CPU
  changed to be new flavors but instance disks size doesn't change
