Commit 1f4ad7d fixed 'qemu-img info' for raw images that are currently in use as a mirror target. It is not enough for image formats, though, as these still unconditionally request BLK_PERM_CONSISTENT_READ.
As this permission is geared towards whether the guest-visible data is consistent, and has no impact on whether the metadata is sane, and 'qemu-img info' does not read guest-visible data (except for the raw format), it makes sense to not require BLK_PERM_CONSISTENT_READ if there is not going to be any guest I/O performed, regardless of image format.
