[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v6 01/25] block/mirror: Small absolute-paths simplification

[Max Reitz <mreitz@redhat.com>]

When invoking drive-mirror in absolute-paths mode, the target's backing
BDS is assigned to it in mirror_exit(). The current logic only does so
if the target does not have that backing BDS already; but it actually
cannot have a backing BDS at all (the BDS is opened with O_NO_BACKING in
qmp_drive_mirror()), so just assert that and assign the new backing BDS
unconditionally.
