Hello Everyone,
A while ago Kevin noticed that the replication driver doesn't properly attach
the children it wants to use. Instead, it directly copies the BdrvChilds from
it's backing file, which is wrong. Ths Patchset fixes the problem, fixes a
potential crash in replication_co_writev due to missing permissions and removes
a workaround that was put in place back then.

Regards,
Lukas Straub

Changes:

-v4:
    -minor style fixes
    -clarify why children areguaranteed to be writable in
     "replication: Remove workaround"
    -Added Reviewed-by tags

-v3:
    -Split up into multiple patches
    -Remove s->active_disk
    -Clarify child permissions in commit message

-v2: Test for BDRV_CHILD_PRIMARY in replication_child_perm, since
     bs->file might not be set yet. (Vladimir)


Lukas Straub (4):
  replication: Remove s->active_disk
  replication: Reduce usage of s->hidden_disk and s->secondary_disk
  replication: Properly attach children
  replication: Remove workaround
