In general, I didn't bother about callers that didn't handle *pnum = 0
correctly (for example block-migration.c and commit).  But I see now
that the ones in qemu-io-cmds.c are due to a bad rebase.

(BTW, I just noticed now that both block-migration.c and commit also run
outside a coroutine, and thus rely on bdrv_is_allocated creating one).
