[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v3 02/21] block: Fix reopen with semantically overlapping options

[Kevin Wolf]

This fixes bdrv_reopen() calls like the following one:

    qemu-io -c 'open -o overlap-check.template=all /tmp/test.qcow2' \
    -c 'reopen -o overlap-check=none'

The approach taken so far would result in an options QDict that has both
"overlap-check.template=all" and "overlap-check=none", which obviously
conflicts. In this case, the old option should be overridden by the
newly specified option.
