This series is on top of Alberto's "Add 'blockdev-snapshot' command" series

BlockBackend devices and BlockDriverState node-names occupy the same
namespace.  In addition, there are two methods that can be used in different
circumstances to look up a BlockDriverState: blk_by_name() and bdrv_find_node().

There is also a common interface, bdrv_lookup_bs(), that can look up either by
blk_by_name() or bdrv_find_node().

This makes bdrv_find_node() redundant for an external interface.  And in the
cases where we just want the underlying BDS for a BlockBackend device, it is
simpler to use bdrv_lookup_bs() instead of blk_by_name().

This series makes bdrv_find_node() static and internal to block.c as a helper
function, and attempts to simplify some code when we are looking just for the
BDS of a BlockBackend device.

Jeff Cody (3):
  block: Use bdrv_lookup_bs() instead of bdrv_find_node()
  block: make bdrv_find_node() static
  block: use bdrv_lookup_bs() over blk_by_name() for BDS only results
