Based on the discussion on the proposed patch [1], we don't want to
propagate the one-off setting of swap and ephemeral disk [2] from the
API further throughout the codebase. If anything, those options should
be removed from the API.

Title:
  DiskFilter uses Ephemeral size from Flavor, not actual ephemeral size

Status in OpenStack Compute (nova):
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  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.
