Bug Description

When overcommiting on hard disk usage, the audit logs report negative amounts of free disk space. While technically correct, it may confuse the user, or make the user think there is something wrong with the tracking.

The patch to fix this will be in a similar vein to https://review.openstack.org/#/c/93261/

while I have a patch prepped for this, I don't plan to submit it until the related patch (linked in the description) is approved. If the related patch doesn't get approved, this patch would probably not be a good idea.

    Adjust audit logs to avoid negative disk info

    When requesting more disk than is available, the audit
    logs will report negative values. This may confuse the
    user or make him/her think the tracking is innaccurate.

    This patch seeks to remove any confusion. It is in the
    same vein as https://review.openstack.org/#/c/93261/
    which addresses the same issue in regards to cpu and
    memory audit logs.
