You don't really implement the transactional pattern that was used by
the original code (and is used elsewhere). It should work like this:

1. Prepare: This stage performs all operations that can fail. They are
   not made active yet. For example with snapshotting, open a new
   BlockDriver state, but don't change the backing file chain yet.

2. Commit: Activate the change. This operation can never fail. For this
   reason, you never have to undo anything done here.

3. Rollback: Basically just free everything that prepare did up to the
   error.

If you do it your way, you get into serious trouble if rollback involves
operations that can fail.

In the original code, here start the prepare:

The following block is the commit:

> -    QSIMPLEQ_FOREACH(states, &snap_bdrv_states, entry) {

> */
> -        bdrv_append(states->new_bs, states->old_bs);
> -        /* We don't need (or want) to use the transactional
> -         * bdrv_reopen_multiple() across all the entries at once, because we
> -         * don't want to abort all of them if one of them fails the reopen */
> -        bdrv_reopen(states->new_bs, states->new_bs->open_flags & 
> ~BDRV_O_RDWR,
> -                    NULL);
> -    }
> -
>      /* success */

And this is rollback:

> -    /*

>      QSIMPLEQ_FOREACH(states, &snap_bdrv_states, entry) {
> -        if (states->new_bs) {
> -             bdrv_delete(states->new_bs);
> -        }
> +        states->ops->rollback(states->action, states->opaque);
>      }
