Ok, so using qemu in our tests is basically impossible because we can't
get any status messages. Bad news.
For this one we can handle it differently: I'll implement
bdrv_get/put_buffer in qemu-io, this should be more or less the same to
the image format drivers. We even get more control over the data
written, so I guess this is the better approach anyway.
