You are adding this code into the recursive worker. It's possible only
in the first iteration here to get a non-canonical "path" here, as all
other backing chain elements are prepped with virFindBackingFile.

Thus this call is redundant on all other iterations than the first.

Please move the canonicalization code into virStorageFileGetMetadata so
that it doesn't get called multiple times. (And also one of my planed
refactors need to change this function to track remote images too and
this would definitely be changed afterwards).
