> by an internal snapshot, such operations lead to problems.  The active L2
> table is copied before it is changed, so the snapshot metadata stays
> correct, but the host range under it is punched out and the snapshot reads
> zeroes there afterwards. qemu-img check finds nothing wrong.

> Fix this by guarding the 'keep_reference' flag by the presence of the
> QCOW_OFLAG_COPIED bit.  I.e. only proceed with unconditional data
> punching if we own this cluster exclusively.
