418690447a5340050e64efc3c811fd30d9e96e5b block: Fix snapshot=on with aio=native
snapshot=on creates a temporary overlay that is always opened with
cache=unsafe (the cache mode specified by the user is only for the
actual image file and its children). This means that we must not inherit
the BDRV_O_NATIVE_AIO flag for the temporary overlay because trying to
use Linux AIO with cache=unsafe results in an error.
Reproducer without this patch:
$ x86_64-softmmu/qemu-system-x86_64 -drive file=/tmp/test.qcow2,cache=none,aio=native,snapshot=on
qemu-system-x86_64: -drive file=/tmp/test.qcow2,cache=none,aio=native,snapshot=on: aio=native was
specified, but it requires cache.direct=on, which was not specified.
