This is based on Supriya Kannery's bdrv_reopen() patch series.
This provides a transactional method to reopen multiple
images files safely.
Image files are queue for reopen via bdrv_reopen_queue(), and the
reopen occurs when bdrv_reopen_multiple() is called. Changes are
staged in bdrv_reopen_prepare() and in the equivalent driver level
functions. If any of the staged images fails a prepare, then all
of the images left untouched, and the staged changes for each image
abandoned.
Block drivers are passed a reopen state structure, that contains:
* BDS to reopen
* flags for the reopen
* opaque pointer for any driver-specific data that needs to be
persistent from _prepare to _commit/_abort
* reopen queue pointer, if the driver needs to queue additional
BDS for a reopen
