FYI: This change fixes an issue that virt-test found over my
weekend run in the 'blockpull' test which was caused by 4/4 of
the addressing backing stores by index:

http://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2014-April/msg00823.html

Essentially the test sets things up via:

/usr/bin/virsh snapshot-create-as virt-tests-vm1 snapshot1 snap1-desc --disk-only --atomic --no-metadata vda,snapshot=external,file=/home/virt-test/tmp/jeos-20-64.snap1
/usr/bin/virsh snapshot-create-as virt-tests-vm1 snapshot2 snap2-desc --disk-only --atomic --no-metadata vda,snapshot=external,file=/home/virt-test/tmp/jeos-20-64.snap2
/usr/bin/virsh snapshot-create-as virt-tests-vm1 snapshot3 snap3-desc --disk-only --atomic --no-metadata vda,snapshot=external,file=/home/virt-test/tmp/jeos-20-64.snap3

Then does (in different passes):

/usr/bin/virsh blockpull virt-tests-vm1 vda --wait --verbose
/usr/bin/virsh blockpull virt-tests-vm1 vda --wait --verbose --base /home/virt-test/tmp/jeos-20-64.snap2
/usr/bin/virsh blockpull virt-tests-vm1 vda --wait --verbose --base /home/virt-test/tmp/jeos-20-64.snap1
/usr/bin/virsh blockpull virt-tests-vm1 vda --wait --verbose --timeout 1
/usr/bin/virsh blockpull virt-tests-vm1 vda --wait --verbose --timeout 1 --base /home/virt-test/tmp/jeos-20-64.snap2
/usr/bin/virsh blockpull virt-tests-vm1 vda --wait --verbose --timeout 1 --base /home/virt-test/tmp/jeos-20-64.snap1

Without this patch applied, the blockpull's w/ --base supplied fail
with either:

could not find image '/home/virt-test/tmp/jeos-20-64.snap2' in chain for '/home/virt-test/tmp/jeos-20-64.snap3'

or

could not find image '/home/virt-test/tmp/jeos-20-64.snap1' in chain for '/home/virt-test/tmp/jeos-20-64.snap3'

FWIW: The weekend run I had w/ virt-test against recent upstream
changes was quite successful. There's still an issue or two to
resolve regarding how capacity is checked, but the recent storage 
changes haven't caused regressions.
