Public bug reported:

If you create a vm with 20G disk using rbd as imagebackend, it would create an 
rbd image with 20480G (real size = configured size * 1024).
Beside the problem of wrong size allocation, this bug also bring two side 
effect:
1. The vm consume more disk space than configured size, which would lead to an 
worst case scenario that serveral vm instance would take up all the volume 
backend free space if they are writing data to rbd image.
2. It would make delete vm operation seems like being stuck because deleting 
all the objects of a rbd image with a too big size cost a lot of time.
