[pve-devel] partially-applied: [PATCH-SERIES common/qemu-server v2 00/32] preparation for switch to blockdev

["Fabian Grünbichler" <f.gruenbichler@proxmox.com>]

applied most of the patches, except for 6, 28/29 and 31/32.

6 is dropped altogether, the other 4 can be included in the switch to
blockdev to avoid affecting the block graph before that happens.

folded in a small fixup for 7/8, and committed the changed expected
output for tests.

thanks a lot for driving this forward!
