Hm, why?  I don’t see the problem with it.


My wrong idea, sorry. I believed that the argument is unused when I were reviewing v10. But it actually become unused during the series and it is wrong.


I missed searching for calls to the qmp_block_stream() in the QEMU dinamically generated code. Will roll back.
