I don't understand. Doesn't it mean that if you force the alignment by
truncating out the extra bytes, some data is lost?
You can take qcow2_co_pwritev_compressed in block/qcow2.c as an example.
The bdrv_getlength will return the length in bytes which is always a multiple of BDRV_SECTOR_SIZE.
After truncates this size, the vmdk is extended to align sector size.

Where is this bytes == 0 condition from?
From the end of convert_do_copy in qemu-img.c.
 
    if (s->compressed && !s->ret) {
        /* signal EOF to align */
        ret = blk_pwrite_compressed(s->target, 0, NULL, 0);
        if (ret < 0) {
            return ret;
        }
    }
 
It signals the EOF to the block driver.
