The difference you list doesn't make any sense. The only difference
between this an V3 is removing the qemu_command.c from patch1.  I did a
git diff between the two trees I have from your patches:

diff --git a/src/qemu/qemu_driver.c b/src/qemu/qemu_driver.c
index c3b81e138..e95683965 100644

false)))

-        /* keep the qcow2 cache configuration */
-        dd->src->l2_cache_size = vm->def->disks[i]->src->l2_cache_size;
-        dd->src->refcount_cache_size =
vm->def->disks[i]->src->refcount_cache_size;

vm->def->disks[i]->src->cache_clean_interval;
-
         if (virStorageSourceInitChainElement(dd->src, dd->disk->src,
false) < 0)
             goto error;


I'll stick with the v3 version and adjustments from comments that I made.
