qcow2_alloc_bytes() is a function with insufficient error handling and
an unnecessary goto. This patch rewrites it.

v2:
- s/free_cluster_index/free_byte_index/ [Eric]
- added an assertion at the start of the function that
  s->free_byte_offset is either 0 or points to the tail of a cluster
  (but never to the start)
- use ROUND_UP() instead of start_of_cluster() + cluster_size [Eric]
- added an assertion that s->free_byte_offset is set before using it

Looks nicer.

Here, I can prove that the left side of the || makes no difference to
the outcome (using just the right half is sufficient, since
!s->free_byte_offset implies cluster_end == 0, but new_cluster will be
non-zero because we never allocate the header cluster). I'd be fine if
you wanted to respin that and add the comment for the micro-optimized
shorter code; but for maintenance purposes, it's easier to rely on the
explicit condition (even if redundant) than to think about whether a
proof listed in a comment is correct, so I'm also fine leaving things as is.

At this point, s->free_byte_offset violates the precondition if we just
allocated a cluster, so we have to make sure that we restore the
precondition before exiting...

...this early exit only happens if s->free_byte_offset was pointing to a
tail, and there are no other early exits, with the final exit properly
restoring the precondition.

The code could perhaps become a bit nicer if you used
alloc_clusters_noref() here...

...because this block could become unconditional then, ...

...here you could use update_refcount() with the actual byte count
(which also avoids two unnecessary shifts)...

...and this part wouldn't be needed because update_refcount() already
tries to fail atomically.

It would also simplify the two lines of this comment that aren't in the
patch context any more. ;-)

The patch looks correct to me. Let me know if you'd like to address the
point I made above, or if I should apply it as it is.

Good question. On one hand, I like your suggestion because it would 
indeed make the code shorter. On the other hand, I somehow feel better 
using functions that are prefixed qcow2_* because I feel like it might 
make the code harder to read if sometimes we use qcow2_alloc_clusters() 
and alloc_clusters_noref() at other times; and sometimes we use 
qcow2_update_cluster_refcount() and update_refcount() at other times.

But then again, it might make sense to have this function mirror 
qcow2_alloc_clusters(), which does use alloc_clusters_noref() and 
update_refcount() (of course).

So I think I'll go with your suggestion, thanks!
