All fields from objects.Port were being added to self.fields in the
API Port object. Because of this, when someone would POST, there'd be an
entry for {'id': None} in the dictionary passed to dbapi.create_port(). We
should only set fields we're exposing.
This also required fixing PATCH to not try to look at fields not set on
the API Port object when mapping to objects.Port.

Ironic
Ironic is an Incubated OpenStack project which aims to provision bare metal machines instead of virtual machines, forked from the Nova Baremetal driver. It is best thought of as a bare metal hypervisor API and a set of plugins which interact with the bare metal hypervisors. By default, it will use PXE and IPMI in concert to provision and turn on/off machines, but Ironic also supports vendor-specific plugins which may implement additional functionality.
