Public bug reported:

Ceilometer was causing resources to have a huge amount of revisions on Gnocchi
(1000+), because the compute pollsters were constantly pushing outdated
attributes. This can happen when users (as an example), update the name of VMs.
The name is not updated in the VM's XML that is stored in the KVM host.
This causes the Ceilometer compute pollster to constantly push outdated attributes
that trigger resource revisions on Gnocchi (if we have other pollsters pushing the right
attribute value that is gathered from OpenStack API).

We are using OpenStack Rocky, and Nova version is 18.0.1.
