CacheData please - but I do find the English term "cache data"
irritating as it sounds like data about a cache when instead it is about
cached data. DataCache? CachedData? Maybe a native English speaker can
advise?

Same comment as for dump_bitmap.o: Can we build this only once, please?

P_tmpdir is marked obsolescent in Open Group spec 7. Maybe Erik can
comment some more? Did you verify it builds with mingw32/64?
(I stumbled over it because I found the variable name odd and didn't see
it defined anywhere.)

Error **errp? Same below.

I wonder if it makes sense to introduce this interface instead of going
through the block layer, which would offer a number of different
backends at least. CC'ing the experts.

CamelCase and typedef please.
