I wonder why bdrv_is_allocated_above has to be a separate function
rather than a trivial wrapper around bdrv_get_block_status_above() (like
bdrv_is_allocated() is over bdrv_get_block_status())?

IIUC in the chain image->backing_1->backing_2, where size(image) >
size(backing_1) and size(backing_1) < size(backing_2), if the status of
blocks beyond size(backing_1) is requested we'll start falling through
to backing_2.  I'm not certain this is desirable.  (And yes, this is
already the case in bdrv_is_allocated_above).
