Why is -ENOMEDIUM an expected error value?

IMO a for loop with a body or a do while loop would make this easier to read.

I put the -ENOMEDIUM test because of the following piece of code.
/**                                                                                                                                    
 * Length of a file in bytes. Return < 0 if error or unknown.                                                                          
 */                                                                                                                                    
int64_t bdrv_getlength(BlockDriverState *bs)                                                                                           
{                                                                                                                                      
    BlockDriver *drv = bs->drv;                                                                                                        
    if (!drv)                                                                                                                          
        return -ENOMEDIUM;   

Still I am not sure it's needed. What is your stance on this ?

A BlockDriverState has more than just block filter or image format
state, it also has some guest-visible state unfortunately.  The
BlockDriverState attached to the guest's storage controller (e.g. IDE
CD-ROM) can be closed by blockdev.c:eject_device() and left as an
empty BlockDriverState with ->drv == NULL.

I think we don't need to worry about this in a block filter like
quorum because all child BlockDriverStates will not be ejected.
