[PATCH v3 0/6] Allow changing bs->file on reopen

[Alberto Garcia]

Based-on: <20201127144522.29991-1-vsementsov@virtuozzo.com>

Hello,

here's the third version of the patches that allow replacing bs->file
using (x-)blockdev-reopen. You can read more details here:

https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-block/2021-01/msg00437.html

In summary, the series does three things:

   - Allows replacing bs->file
   - Allows reopening multiple block devices with one single command.
   - Drops the x- prefix from the command name.

This is still depending on Vladimir's "update graph permissions
update" branch.

Regards,

Berto
