change_parent_backing_link() asserts that the BDS to be replaced is not
used as a backing file. However, we may want to replace a BDS by its
overlay in which case that very link should not be redirected.
For instance, when doing a sync=none drive-mirror operation, we may have
the following BDS/BB forest before block job completion:
target
base <- source <- BlockBackend
During job completion, we want to establish the source BDS as the
target's backing node:
target
|
v
base <- source <- BlockBackend
This makes the target a valid replacement for the source:
target <- BlockBackend
|
v
base <- source
Without this modification to change_parent_backing_link() we have to
inject the target into the graph before the source is its backing node,
thus temporarily creating a wrong graph:
target <- BlockBackend
base <- source
