[Qemu-devel] [PATCH] qemu-iotests: 026: Reduce output changes for cache=none qcow2

[Kevin Wolf]

qemu-iotests supports the -nocache option which makes the tests run with
cache=none. For blkdebug tests with qcow2 this means that we may see
test results that differ from cache=writethrough. This patch makes the
diff a bit smaller and therefore easier to review.
