[Qemu-devel] [PATCH] block: Flush parent to OS with cache=unsafe

[Kevin Wolf]

Commit 29cdb251 already added a comment that no unnecessary flushes to
disk will occur, this patch makes the code even get to the point of the
comment. This is mostly theoretical because in practice we only stack
one format on top of one protocol, the former implementing flush_to_os
and the latter only flush_to_disk. It starts to matter when drivers that
are not on top implement flush_to_os.
