After finalizing the transfer, virt-v2v try to connect to the output
socket and query disk allocation. This may work for some outputs
supporting block status, but for rhv_upload output this cannot work for
2 reasons:
- The rhv-upload-plugin does not support extents
- The transfer was finalized before this call, so the plugin lost access
to the image.
Here is an example failure log:

Fix by using the input socket.

This patch is definitely wrong - we need to get the allocation size
from the output disk. Options such as -oa preallocated, and just
general issues like block size, nbdcopy sparseness detection etc,
would affect this.
It probably indicates a problem with rhv-upload-plugin (again) that
it's not really prepared to be an idempotent part of a disk image
pipeline.
Rich.
