[Qemu-block] [PATCH for-2.7 v2 00/17] block: Lock images when opening

[Fam Zheng]

v2: Lock byte 1 in the image itself, no lock file. [Daniel]
    Fix migration (image are not locked in bdrv_open_common if
    BDRV_O_INACTIVE). [Denis]
    Simplify test case fixes because of the above.
    Add lock for RBD.
    Add "-L" option in "qemu-img" and "qemu-nbd" too. [Denis]
    Add test case for image locking.

Too many troubles have been caused by two processes writing to the same image
unexpectedly. This series introduces automatical image locking into QEMU to
avoid such tragedy. With this, the user won't be able to open the image from
two processes (e.g. using qemu-img when the image is attached to the guest).

Underneath is the fcntl syscall that locks the local file, similar to what is
already used in libvirt virtlockd. The difference is that libvirt locks byte 0,
we lock byte 1.  Read only openings are mapped to shared locks.

The alternative locking API, flock(2), cannot protect host NFS mount points, so
it's not used.

Gluster locking is also implemented wrapping glfs_posix_lock in patch 6. It's
only lightly tested.

All other drivers that don't implement .bdrv_lockf are always permissive and
does no checking.

In the future, the intention is that image format drivers that introduce
locking mechanisms could also fit into this API.
