I have now pushed up through this point into the tree as commits
d668062c..099aa257; I'm still polishing the remaining few patches to
work cleanly with qemu patches at any point along either patch series
(nbdinfo first needs to be taught to favor NBD_OPT_INFO mode where
possible; as qemu reports support for the optional extension of block
status filtering during INFO but not during GO when requesting only
one meta-context).
