This is the final patch for converting the common I/O path to take a BdrvChild parameter instead of BlockDriverState. The completion of this conversion means that all users that perform I/O on an image need to actually hold a reference (in the form of BdrvChild, possible as part of a BlockBackend) to that image. This also protects against inconsistent use of BlockBackend vs. BlockDriverState functions because direct use of a BlockDriverState isn't possible any more and blk->root is private for block-backends.c. In addition, we can now distinguish different users in the I/O path, and the future op blockers work is going to add assertions based on permissions stored in BdrvChild.
