This change slowed things down (slightly) for me, although the change
is within the margin of error so it probably made no difference.

Before:

$ time ./run virt-v2v -i disk /var/tmp/fedora-35.qcow2 -o rhv-upload -oc https://ovirt4410/ovirt-engine/api -op /tmp/ovirt-passwd -oo rhv-direct -os ovirt-data -on test14 -of raw

device "vda".  You may have to fix this entry manually after conversion.
