The patch is okay, but I'm correcting this paragraph into:

    We should check for (res & BDRV_BLOCK_ZERO) only. The situation when we
    will have !(res & BDRV_BLOCK_DATA) and will not have BDRV_BLOCK_ZERO is
    not possible for images with bdi.unallocated_blocks_are_zero == true.

    For those images where it's false, however, it can happen and we must
    not consider the data zeroed then or we would corrupt the image.
