Sorry about that.

Ok, I'll fix this.

The spec states the following about the data_offset field in the footer, 
"This field is used for dynamic disks and differencing disks, 
but not fixed disks. For fixed disks, this field should be set to 0xFFFFFFFF."
(Windows initializes all 8 bytes of the field)

If vpc_open is opening a fixed disk, there is no dynamic disk header from 
which to acquire information for filling out the BDRVVPCState structure.
However, you are right about the read/write code likely not working with 
the structure left uninitialised.  I'll look into what needs to be done here.

Even if scripts/checkpatch.pl complains?  
What is the policy here if a patch contains changes that are within 3 lines 
of existing code that doesn't follow the style guidelines?

Sure, if that is the preferred option.

Thanks for taking the time to review the patch. I'll rework it and send it out 
again.
