However, qemu-img amend needs write access to the image which cannot be provided if the image is marked corrupt; and the image check will not mark the image consistent unless everything actually is consistent. Therefore, if an image is marked corrupt and the image check encounters a reference count overflow, it cannot be fixed by using qemu-img amend to increase the refcount order. Instead, one has to use qemu-img convert to create a completely new copy of the image in this case. Alternatively, we may want to give the user a way of manually removing the corrupt flag, maybe through qemu-img amend, but this is not part of this patch.
