[Qemu-block] [PATCH] blockdev-backup: enable non-root nodes for backup


From: Vladimir Sementsov-Ogievskiy
Subject: [Qemu-block] [PATCH] blockdev-backup: enable non-root nodes for backup
Date: Thu, 9 Nov 2017 17:16:31 +0300

This is needed to implement image-fleecing scheme, when we create
a temporary node, mark our active node to be backing for the temp,
and start backup(sync=none) from active node to the temp node.
Temp node then represents a kind of snapshot and may be used
for external backup through NBD.

What was the reason to abandon non-root nodes?
