   4 Subject: [PATCH] block/io: accept NULL qiov in bdrv_pad_request
   5
   6 Some operations, e.g. block-stream, perform reads while discarding the
   7 results (only copy-on-read matters). In this case they will pass NULL as
   8 the target QEMUIOVector, which will however trip bdrv_pad_request, since
   9 it wants to extend its passed vector.
  10
  11 Simply check for NULL and do nothing, there's no reason to pad the
  12 target if it will be discarded anyway.
