Subject: libxl: convert an empty tap disk into a qdisk
X-Git-Url: https://dgit.raspbian.org/%22http:/www.example.com/cgi/%22https:/%22bookmarks:/%22man:///%22http:/www.example.com/cgi/%22https:/%22bookmarks:/%22man:/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=847ac5c71d200135c734d9961ee32e2b25c45657;p=xen.git

libxl: convert an empty tap disk into a qdisk

I'm not sure that empty disks which are is_cdrom are especially valid,
or that a cdrom can ever be handled by tapdisk anyway but try to do
something sane since it seems that xl's parse_disk_config() routine
could potentially generate such a configuration (although whether from
a valid input string or not I'm not sure).
