This situation is not actually caught by the patch? If it's the same
volid, it will resolve to the same path, so it will just execute
$path_to_volid->{$path}->{$volid} = 1;
multiple times and there won't be any detection of multi-reference, or
what am I missing? Just incrementing the counter instead also doesn't
work, because e.g. multi-reference is fine when done by snapshots.

Maybe there should be a helper just for the currently attached disks?
E.g. iterate over the currently attached disks with
QemuConfig->foreach_volume() and for each volume, resolve the path and
count. If any path is referenced multiple times, complain. To not lose
the volids while counting, you could e.g. "count" with
push $path_to_volid->{$path}->@*, $volid;

The helper can then be called during migration additionally to your
current patch here.

And the helper can also be re-used during VM start (maybe only warn
there to allow for exotic use-cases?) and I'd expect it to already catch
most problematic situations there.
