Why is  tracked_request_begin/end() not put inside the brace around
bs->copy_on_read?
If this COR function is not enabled, i guess that request tracing
function should not be need.

Why need to round down/up sector_num/nb_sectors in this function? The
detection of race condition for write request has been done before
this function.

If we write less than a cluster then the image format will have to
perform additional to populate the regions of the cluster that we did
not touch.  So we touch entire clusters and therefore no extra I/O is
generated.

The comment right above the line you are asking about explains this.

"perform additional I/O"

It's not safe to put the calls inside the "if (bs->copy_on_read) {"
body because turning off copy_on_read while a request is pending would
leave the request in the tracked list forever!

In a previous version of the series there was a flag to turn request
tracking on/off.  Pending requests would still remove themselves from
the list even after request tracking was disabled.

But request tracking is cheap - it involves filling in fields on the
stack and adding them to a linked list.  So to keep things simple we
always maintain this list.
