We've been documenting the value in bytes since its introduction
in commit b9a9b3a4 (v1.3), where it was actually reported in bytes.

Commit e4654d2 (v2.0) then removed things from block/qapi.c, in
preparation for a rewrite to a list of dirty sectors in the next
commit 21b5683 in block.c, but the new code mistakenly started
reporting in sectors.

I must have forgotten about this -- Didn't this get reviewed as part of
your byte series? Is this a resend for a stable branch?

Yes, it was reviewed during my part 2-of-4 series on byte-base block
status (the dirty bitmap series).  Series 1 made it into 2.10, but
series 2-4 did not; ergo, I filtered out the true bug-fixes that were
still worthy post-freeze.


Thanks for the clarification. Short term memory is a little strapped right now due to my move.

ACK
