We need some way to correlate QAPI BlockPermission values with BLK_PERM_* flags. We could: (1) have the same order in the QAPI definition as the the BLK_PERM_* flags are in LSb-first order. However, then there is no guarantee that they actually match (e.g. when someone modifies the QAPI schema without thinking of the BLK_PERM_* definitions). We could add static assertions, but these would break what’s good about this solution, namely its simplicity. (2) define the BLK_PERM_* flags based on the BlockPermission values. But this way whenever someone were to modify the QAPI order (perfectly sensible in theory), the BLK_PERM_* values would change. Because these values are used for file locking, this might break file locking between different qemu versions. Therefore, go the slightly more cumbersome way: Add a function to translate from the QAPI constants to the BLK_PERM_* flags.
