Compared to bdrv_can_snapshot(), this function return whether
bs* is ready to read snapshot info from instead of write. If yes,
caller can then query snapshot information, but taking snapshot
is not always possible for that *bs may be read only.

Per the cover letter, you modified this patch in v6 by changing a return
type from int to bool.  In general, a reviewed-by should be dropped if
your changes were non-trivial, to point out that the reviewer needs to
look at the updated patch (after all, if there were existing callers,
changing from int to bool can change semantics of some of those existing
callers).  Thankfully, for this patch, v6 still earns:
