Yes, I commented on the patches. I think the minimum that should change
is moving the error code definition to where other error codes are
defined in order to avoid future collisions.

Ideally we'd convert bdrv_open to Error and avoid all this error code
stuff, but I'm not requesting this now.

Looks okay to me.  I'm not thrilled about introducing a non-system error
code, would have rather have used EINVAL or ENOTTY.  But that's not a
killer and I see the reason you chose to do that.

Kevin: Any comments before I merge this?

Hi Stefan und Kevin,

these patches are still in my local queue.

Do you plan to add them to the block queue, or would
you prefer another solution for the open bug reports?
