imageio keeps multiple connections to qemu-nbd, and pass all requests
to qemu-nbd. No caching is done in imageio.
But we don't do any synchronization, so we may have one flush command
in the middle of a write/write_zeros commands.
Does qemu-nbd wait until the write/wirte_zeros commands complete
before flushing?
I should note that virt-v2v (the only place this plugin is used) is a
special case because we control the NBD client and we're only doing a copy.
