I prefer keeping it as is, because making it raw would spoil the purpose as a
regression test (the fix was on nbd).

Can we re-comment it as below?

    # 'format': 'nbd' is not actually "correct", but this was the only way to
    # test the bug fixed in commit f53a829.  Though the bug's related code
    # bdrv_swap() was replaced later, let's make sure we don't fall in the same
    # pit again.
