Minor comment: I'd swap these two patches (2 and 3). Patch 1 breaks test
102, patch 3 fixes it again. It would be better to break it for as short
a time as possible.

Alternatively, in order not to break 102 at all, patch 1 would need to
leave the "if (bs->file &&" part of bdrv_co_get_block_status()
(@@ -1544,13 +1550,14 @@) as-is and change it only after the format
block drivers set *file.
