----------------------------------
Attachment: LUCENE-7486.patch
New patch with test. Test fails without the NEGATIVE_INFINITY fix. The trick
was to use a BoostQuery with negative boost.

> We are using a log of probability for scoring, which gives us negative
> scores.
> DisjunctionMaxScorer initializes scoreMax in the score(...) function to zero
> preventing us from using negative scores. Is there a reason it couldn't be
> initialized to something like this:
> float scoreMax = Float.MAX_VALUE * -1;
