I would eventually recommend just directly serving the RBD images via
LIO/TCMU. This is still a work-in-progress but it's being actively
worked on with the goal of making it rock solid. You will need the
latest upstream of rtslib-fb, targetcli-fb, and tcmu-runner [1] in
addition to the most recent upstream kernel (>=4.12-rc7-ish).

We plan to document all the in-and-outs of the current implementation
as part of the Luminous release -- although it really only requires
Jewel. Additionally, there are also some new tools [2][3][4] to help
facilitate the configuration and management of a cluster of RBD-backed
iSCSI targets.

That tool should probably only be considered a proof-of-concept and
definitely not the foundation for any production workload.
