Hi Philippe Mathieu-Daudé

According to my test result this change introduced a minor bug, qemu
output error messages "qemu-system-x86_64: virtio-blk missing headers"
reproduced command:
/usr/local/bin/qemu-system-x86_64 -M q35 -m 8G -smp 8 -cpu host
-enable-kvm -device VGA,bus=pcie.0,addr=0x2 -drive
file=///home/fedora-40.qcow2,media=disk,if=virtio -device
virtio-net-pci,mac=00:11:22:33:44:00,netdev=netdev1,id=net1,bus=pcie.0,addr=0x7
 -netdev tap,id=netdev1,script=/etc/qemu-ifup,downscript=/etc/qemu-ifdown
-vnc :0  -monitor stdio
QEMU 10.1.50 monitor - type 'help' for more information
(qemu) qemu-system-x86_64: virtio-blk missing headers

Thanks
Lei
