Previously, after upgrading the undercloud, there was a missing restart of the openstack-nova-api service, which would cause upgrades of the overcloud to fail due to a timeout that would report the error "ERROR: Timed out waiting for a reply to message ID 84a44ca3ed724eda991ba689cc364852". Now, the openstack-nova-api service is correctly restarted as part of the undercloud upgrade process, allowing the overcloud upgrade process to proceed without encountering this timeout issue.
So I can confirm that I've hit this many many times testing the upgrades in a virt environment. The fix discussed on irc yesterday, to restart openstack-nova-api after upgrading the undercloud seems to fix it for me. I've added the restart to the tripleoclient undercloud upgrade @ https://review.openstack.org/#/c/293960/
