Public bug reported:

While exploring the newer microversions (here 1.4) of the placement API
I found this part of the API reference unclear to me
(https://developer.openstack.org/api-ref/placement/#list-resource-
providers, 'resources' parameter):

"A comma-separated list of strings indicating an amount of resource of a
specified class that a provider must have the capacity to serve:"

Based on the reference I cannot tell if the capacity is meant to be
total or current (ie. total - current allocations).

Running a few queries it seems to me the actual behavior is to filter on
total capacity. If that was the intended behavior then this report is
just a tiny documentation bug I guess.

ref/source/parameters.yaml#L105
