if a raw device like an iscsi target or host device is used
the current implementation makes a second call out to get
the block status of bs->file.

Signed-off-by: Peter Lieven <pl@kamp.de>
---
v5: add a generic get_lba_status function in the raw driver which
    adds the BDRV_BLOCK_RAW flag. bdrv_co_get_block_status will
    handle the callout to bs->file then.

v4: use a flag to detect the raw driver instead of the strncmp
    hack

Strictly speaking, this should probably do something like this:

  assert(ret & BDRV_BLOCK_OFFSET_VALID);
  return bdrv_get_block_status(bs->file, ret >> BDRV_SECTOR_BITS,
                               nb_sectors, pnum);

Or alternatively the raw driver should return just "BDRV_BLOCK_RAW".

As a third option, the raw driver could also return not just
BDRV_BLOCK_RAW and BDRV_BLOCK_OFFSET_VALID, but also BDRV_BLOCK_DATA (so
that the answer makes some sense even without going down to bs->file).

But I'll let the block maintainers decide what to do.

Okay, I will wait for their feedback.

The return value is a bitfield, so let's use those bits and take Option 3.

shouldn't the last line be:

   return bdrv_get_block_status(bs->file, ret >> BDRV_SECTOR_BITS,
                                *pnum, pnum);


This would of course require *pnum = nb_sectors in raw_co_get_block_status
?
