[Qemu-block] [PATCH] vmdk: false positive of compat6 with hwversion not set

[yuchenlin]

From: yuchenlin <address@hidden>

In vmdk_co_create_opts, when it finds hw_version is undefined, it will
set it to 4, which misleading the compat6 and hwversion in
vmdk_co_do_create. Simply set hw_version to NULL after free, let
the logic in vmdk_co_do_create to decide the value of hw_version.

This bug can be reproduced by:

$ qemu-img convert -O vmdk -o subformat=streamOptimized,compat6
/home/yuchenlin/syno.qcow2 /home/yuchenlin/syno.vmdk

qemu-img: /home/yuchenlin/syno.vmdk: error while converting vmdk:
compat6 cannot be enabled with hwversion set
