There are patches floating around to add NBD_CMD_BLOCK_STATUS,
but NBD wants to report status on byte granularity (even if the
reporting will probably be naturally aligned to sectors or even
much higher levels). I've therefore started the task of
converting our block status code to report at a byte granularity
rather than sectors.
Now that 2.11 is open, I'm rebasing/reposting the remaining patches.
The overall conversion currently looks like:
part 1: bdrv_is_allocated (merged in 2.10, commit 51b0a488)
part 2: dirty-bitmap (this series, v7 was here [1])
part 3: bdrv_get_block_status (v4 is posted [2] and is mostly reviewed)
part 4: .bdrv_co_block_status (v3 is posted [3], but needs review)

Since v7:
- add R-b where appropriate
- patch 5 rewritten to be simpler [John]
- patch 7 and 20 have fallout from patch 5, but I kept R-b
