[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 1/2] block: fix BDRV_O_SNAPSHOT protocol detection

[Stefan Hajnoczi]

realpath(3) is used to get an absolute path to the image file when
creating a -drive snapshot=on temporary qcow2.  This does not work for
protocols since their filenames ("proto:foo:...") do not correspond to
file system paths.

Commit 7c96d46ec245d73fd76726588409f9abe4bd5dc1 ("Let snapshot work with
protocols") skipped realpath(3) for protocols.  Later on the "raw"
format was introduced and broke the check.

Use path_has_protocol(filename) to decide if this image uses a protocol
or a filename.
