Currently copy_policy isn't used. Recent sheepdog supports erasure coding, which make use of copy_policy internally, but require client explicitly passing copy_policy from base inode to newly creately inode for snapshot related operations.
If connected sheep daemon doesn't utilize copy_policy, passing it to sheep daemon is just one extra null effect operation. So no compatibility problem. With this patch, sheepdog can provide erasure coded volume for QEMU VM.
