Probably the most common use case I see is when OpenStack is used as an 
underpinning IaaS on top of which you deploy CF:

https://cloudfoundry.org/multi-cloud/
http://docs.cloudfoundry.org/deploying/openstack/

There’s also a fairly common “sub-usecase”: an organization deploys OpenStack, 
then deploys CloudFoundry on top of it.  Some workloads use OpenStack directly 
(as they’re built for an IaaS) while others are deployed via CloudFoundry (as 
they’re build for a PaaS).  In these situations you’re still running all 
workloads atop OpenStack so there’s a certain amount of resource control you 
can exert (e.g. I’ve seen some CF deployed in a tenant that has quota limits 
placed on it such that CF can’t consume more than some percentage of the 
available disk/memory/CPU/etc) and there are some potential advantages as far 
as capacity management, administration, etc (these will vary from organization 
to organization).

At Your Service,
