bdrv_is_allocated_above() was relying on intermediate->total_sectors,
which is a field that can have stale contents depending on the value
of intermediate->has_variable_length.  An audit shows that we are safe
(we were first calling through bdrv_co_get_block_status() which in
turn calls bdrv_nb_sectors() and therefore just refreshed the current
length), but it's nicer to favor our accessor functions to avoid having
to repeat such an audit, even if it means refresh_total_sectors() is
called more frequently.
