[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v8 14/26] block/nbd: Make bdrv_dirname() return NULL

[Max Reitz]

The generic bdrv_dirname() implementation would be able to generate some
form of directory name for many NBD nodes, but it would be always wrong.
Therefore, we have to explicitly make it an error (until NBD has some
form of specification for export paths, if it ever will).
