All hard disks (IDE, SCSI, USB, VirtIO) have a concept of a serial number
which is intended to uniquely identify them. If you mean this off, QEMU
just makes up a serial on the fly. THis is not guarenteed to be stable
across guest reboots with hardware changes. It is thus desirable to be
able to specify this in libvirt XML. To that end, this patch allows
for a <serial> element inside a disk
<disk type='file' device='disk'>
<source file='/media/lacie-500-disk-2/virtual-machines/scratch5.img'/>
<target dev='vda' bus='virtio'/>
<serial>dan123virtio</serial>
</disk>
the contents is free-form. It implemenmts this for the QEMU driver for
any disk using -drive style args. Unfortunately this excludes USB disk,
even though internally QEMU can set a serial for these, the -usbdevice
syntax does not allow it
