bdrv_find_conflicting_request() will return NULL even if there are
conflicting requests, but those have a non-NULL waiting_for.  Is that
something to consider?

(I would like to think that will never have a real impact because then
we must find some other conflicting request; but isn’t is possible that
we find an overlapping request that waits for another request with which
it overlaps, but our request does not?)
