[Bug 1428176] [NEW] DiskFilter uses Ephemeral size from Flavor, not actual ephemeral size

 

Public bug reported:

DiskFilter checks if instance can fit into host and uses 'ephemeral_gb'
value from Flavor.  However, it is possible to reduce ephemeral (and
swap) size by providing custom block device mapping on instance create
[1].  In this case we are having false-negative answer form DiskFilter.
