[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v2 7/7] blkverify: Don't require protocol filename

[Max Reitz <mreitz@redhat.com>]

If the filename is not prefixed by "blkverify:" in
blkverify_parse_filename(), the blkverify driver was not selected
through that protocol prefix, but by an explicit command line option
(like file.driver=blkverify). Contrary to the current reaction, this is
not really a problem; the whole filename just has to be stored (in the
x-image option) and the user has to manually specify the x-raw option.
