I'd suggest rewording this to "If bdrv_drop_intermediate() failed (or
was not invoked at all), remove the commit filter driver from the
backing chain now."

Right now it sounds like maybe bdrv_drop_intermediate() removes the
filter, and maybe it doesn't.  But actually it is supposed to always
remove it -- but it may fail, and then we have to force-remove the filter.

Apart from that:
