Error in Virtual Device Contexts v4.0.1

[jlhuston]

When attempting to view the whole list of Virtual Device Contexts, I get a 500 error page with the below details. When I click on an existing VDC used on a device to get to the detail page (/dcim/virtual-device-contexts/##), that works just fine. It is just the root page for VDCs that is having the issue.

I did take a quick look at the dcim_virtualdevicecontext table in the database and didn't find any rows that referenced device IDs that don't exist as actual devices. Just in case it was some sort of data inconsistency.
