This partially makes sense if you consider the QEMU shorthand
syntax only requires you to specify a format=luks, and it'll
automagically uses "raw" as the next level driver. QEMU will
however let you override the "raw" with any other driver it
supports (vmdk, qcow, rbd, iscsi, etc, etc)

IOW the intention though is that the "luks" encryption format
is applied to all disk formats (whether raw, qcow2, rbd, gluster
or whatever). As such it doesn't make much sense for libvirt
to say the volume type is "luks" - we should be saying that it
is a "raw" file, but with "luks" encryption applied.

IOW, when creating a storage volume we should use this XML

 <volume>
   <name>demo.raw</name>
   <capacity>5368709120</capacity>
   <target>
     <format type='raw'/>
     <encryption format='luks'>
       <secret type='passphrase' uuid='0a81f5b2-8403-7b23-c8d6-21ccd2f80d6f'/>
     </encryption>
   </target>
 </volume>

and when configuring a guest disk we should use

 <disk type='file' device='disk'>
   <driver name='qemu' type='raw'/>
   <source file='/home/berrange/VirtualMachines/demo.raw'/>
   <target dev='sda' bus='scsi'/>
   <encryption format='luks'>
     <secret type='passphrase' uuid='0a81f5b2-8403-7b23-c8d6-21ccd2f80d6f'/>
   </encryption>
 </disk>

This commit thus removes the "luks" storage volume type added
in

   util: Add 'luks' to the FileTypeInfo

The storage file probing code is modified so that it can probe
the actual encryption formats explicitly, rather than merely
probing existance of encryption and letting the storage driver
guess the format.

The rest of the code is then adapted to deal with
VIR_STORAGE_FILE_RAW w/ VIR_STORAGE_ENCRYPTION_FORMAT_LUKS
instead of just VIR_STORAGE_FILE_LUKS.

The commit mentioned above was included in libvirt v2.0.0.
So when querying volume XML this will be a change in behaviour
vs the 2.0.0 release - it'll report 'raw' instead of 'luks'
for the volume format, but still report 'luks' for encryption
format.  I think this change is OK because the storage driver
did not include any support for creating volumes, nor starting
guets with luks volumes in v2.0.0 - that only since then.
Clearly if we change this we must do it before v2.1.0 though.

I think this whole condition can be removed as it wasn't there before
luks volumes.

You're still reporting the error for "luks volume" here.

Why 'j'?

Apart from those first three nits pointed out the patch is fine.  I also
like the fact that it automatically get's rid of a problem with
format='luks' and no encryption specified (where we just waited for QEMU
to fail at startup).  The problem is that, as you said, it was released
in v2.0.0 and you can have a domain with such disk.  I think we need to
make a workaround where "luks" is some kind of alias to "raw" (but also
make sure it will require encryption because you could have luks without
encryption secret).  At least we don't have that in the documentation
(even though it should've been).
