[Qemu-devel] [PATCH] block: vhdx - force FileOffsetMB field to '0' for certain block states

[Jeff Cody]

The v1.0.0 spec calls out PAYLOAD_BLOCK_ZERO FileOffsetMB field as being
'reserved'.  In practice, this means that Hyper-V will fail to read a
disk image with PAYLOAD_BLOCK_ZERO block states with a FileOffsetMB
value other than 0.

The other states that indicate a block that is not there
(PAYLOAD_BLOCK_UNDEFINED, PAYLOAD_BLOCK_NOT_PRESENT,
 PAYLOAD_BLOCK_UNMAPPED) have multiple options for what FileOffsetMB may
be set to, and '0' is explicitly called out as an option.

For all the above states, we will also just set the FileOffsetMB value
to 0.
