Public bug reported: Currently if user wants to create an instance using a Glance snapshot that has no value for ramdisk_id or kernel_id, then Nova copies the image metadata into instance system metadata and prefixes the keys with 'image_'. Due to [1] the None value of ramdisk_id and kernel_id get written as the string 'None' in system metadata.
Unfortunately these values are not accepted by glance image schema in v2 api [2]. They can be None, but a not string 'None'. This issue doesn't allow us to fully adopt glance v2 api in Nova.
