[Qemu-devel][Patch] Fix QEMU failure for disk image on readonly filesystem

[Stefan Weil]

Hello,

qemu fails when the disk image file is writable but on
a readonly filesystem (so it is not really writable).

The patch below fixes this. It also declares a local
function "static" (maybe this part of the patch is a
matter of taste).

Regards,
Stefan
