    libvirt: ensure disk_over_commit is not negative
    
    During update_available_resource periodic task, nova-compute reports
    total amount of disk_over_committed in order to determine current 
hypervisor's
    available_disk_least.
    
    In case instance disk file have allocated size greater than virtual
    disk size, resulting disk_over_committed is negative.
    Because a negative value will inaccurately increase available_disk_least,
    the change proposes to set it to 0 instead.

Title:
  available disk on compute may be lightly overestimated in some cases

Status in OpenStack Compute (nova):
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Description
  ===========

  Calculation of available disk space on compute host can be a bit inaccurate 
from few KB to few GB,
  involving possible bad scheduler decision.

  availability disk for new instance on a specific host  is calculated this way:
  available_disk_least = disk_free_fs  - over_committed_disk_size (aka:  sum of 
instances disk reservation not yet used)

  But because over_committed_disk_size can be negative (see below)
  available_least space can be mistakenly increased.

  Steps to reproduce
  ==================

  on master devstack

  raw instances
  -----
  if you spawn instances with raw preallocated disk
  1) set in nova-cpu.conf:
  [default]/preallocate_images=space
   [libvirt]/images_type=raw
  2) restart nova compute
  sudo service devstack@n-cpu restart

  3) spawn 3 instances : openstack server create  --flavor m1.large --image 
cirros-0.4.0-x86_64-disk --nic net-id=private  alex
  devstack$ ls -lhs /opt/stack/data/nova/instances/*/disk
  81G -rw-r--r-- 1 libvirt-qemu kvm 80G Apr 10 00:49 
/opt/stack/data/nova/instances/6ce8d602-e3b4-433b-92dc-57508dd86163/disk
  81G -rw-r--r-- 1 libvirt-qemu kvm 80G Apr 10 06:54 
/opt/stack/data/nova/instances/71c4867d-6e13-4f16-a9f7-f5da28388346/disk
  81G -rw-r--r-- 1 libvirt-qemu kvm 80G Apr  9 15:28 
/opt/stack/data/nova/instances/aaad32cb-a437-46c1-9122-2d0197acf54a/disk
  devstack$  ls -ls /opt/stack/data/nova/instances/*/disk | awk 
'{sum_alloc_size+=$1 ; sum_virtual_size+=$6}END{print 
sum_virtual_size-sum_alloc_size*1024" bytes"}'
  -2330624 bytes

  
  qcow2 instances
  -----
  if you do the same with qcow2 with (in nova-cpu.conf: 
[default]/preallocate_images=space [libvirt]/images_type=qcow2):
  qemu-img info 
/opt/stack/data/nova/instances/d99ea46d-95f6-4078-8d42-984506aa9d10/disk 
--output=json --force-share | grep -e actual-size -e virtual-size
        "virtual-size": 85899345920,
        "actual-size": 85899362304,
  -16384 bytes

  But main issue is because actual size can be greater than virtual size of few 
percents due to qcow2 metadata overhead.
  real case:
  qemu-img info /instances/29e86867-ec72-41fb-8dde-0df663c13ff8/disk
  image: /instances/29e86867-ec72-41fb-8dde-0df663c13ff8/disk
  file format: qcow2
  virtual size: 80G (85899345920 bytes)
  disk size: 85G
  cluster_size: 65536
  backing file: /instances/_base/68429e45667b8f2b91a94a76170cdb94f4adc9f2
  Format specific information:
        compat: 1.1
        lazy refcounts: false
        refcount bits: 16
        corrupt: false

  -> -5 GB for only one instance

  
  Expected result
  ===============
  over_committed_disk_size calculation should retain 0 in case of negative value

  Actual result
  ===============
  negative over_committed_disk_size artificially increase available_disk_least
