Since you're adding to the public XML schema, please also update
the files docs/schemas/domaincommon.rng and docs/formatdomain.html.in
with appropriate info. It would also be desirable to add some test
cases to the qemuxml2argvtest.c test to validate this.

Since you went to trouble of defining VIR_ENUM, you should be using
virDomainDiskGeometryTransTypeFromString() here instead of all these
STREQs.

The geometry information is used to set guest device properties.
The disk->type setting is about the host backend image type.
So I don't see why there's a dependancy between them. IMHO you
should just remove this if, and unconditionally set the geometry
regardless of what the backend type is.
