This call to bdrv_change_backing_file() should be removed now, as well
as the supporting code above it (not seen in the diff context):

        const char *base_id = NULL, *base_fmt = NULL;
        if (base) {
            base_id = s->backing_file_id;
            if (base->drv) {
                base_fmt = base->drv->format_name;
            }
        }

This is (should be) taken care of in bdrv_drop_intermediate().
