[Qemu-devel] [PATCH for-2.9 2/2] block/curl: Check protocol prefix

[Max Reitz <mreitz@redhat.com>]

If the user has explicitly specified a block driver and thus a protocol,
we have to make sure the URL's protocol prefix matches. Otherwise the
latter will silently override the former which might catch some users by
surprise.
