Seems that I misunderstood your comments. What my 2/2 patch tried to do
is enable 'qemu-img snapshot -a' to rollback the sheepdog disk states
only and it is correct. So what I need fixing is comment, right?

how about the commenting as 'qemu-img asks us to rollback disk only, we
can't rely on the write request to sd_create_branch, so just call it
directly' ?

Thanks,
Yuan
