Hi All,

Any comments on this idea? Recall the motivation for this change is to subsequently use the image format settings to request mapped-ram.

Regards,
Jim

The current documentation of the various foo_image_format settings in
qemu.conf subtly implies they are only used for specifying compression.
Patch1 of this small series attempts to clarify and improve the description
of the settings. It defines image format as a way to specify the desired
layout of guest memory blocks on disk.

Patch2 changes the use of 'compressed' with 'format' throughout the
code, removing implication that format == compressed.

V2:
Replace more uses of 'compressed' with 'format' in patch2
