Restore removed unsupported drivers
The driver removal policy was relaxed in January 2020 [0] to allow unsupported drivers to remain in-tree at the discretion of the Cinder project team (and while they were not breaking the gate). Thus, appropriate drivers marked unsupported in Train and removed at the beginning of Ussuri should be restored. At the Cinder Ussuri Virtual Mid-Cycle (Session 2) [1], the team decided to restore these drivers:
- Prophetstor
- Veritas Access
- Virtuozzo
(The Nimble team restored their driver as part of their effort to get it re-supported, so that's not included here.)
