Jeremy: Hemanth (in comment#72) seems to have mixed up this bug (which
sets limits for memory / CPU usage for `qemu-img` calls) with *another*
bug[x] that is about disk image format guessing.

So, the Nova patches that fix this bug (1449062) are sufficient for the
problem it is solving (setting a cap on memory / CPU usage).
