[Bug 1661636] Re: cinder in LXD/LXC Container doesn't support NFS mount

I'm going to mark this bug as a 'Won't Fix' - this issue relates to a
kernel limitation with regards to mounting NFS volumes as unpriviledged
users (which is the case in a LXD container).

If you really need this support, then I'd recommend deploying a second
instance of the cinder charm with just the volume service enabled
directly to hardware, with the main cinder instance simply providing API
and scheduling (the cinder charm has specific configuration options to
support this type of config).
