Note that 'top parent' is a term used in the block commit code and the
top parent image there does not necessarily refer to the top of the disk
backing chain. As of such you should refrain from using that term and
use e.g. 'chain top'. Or perhaps better 'parentChainTop' or a variation.

The secdriver code takes the 'parent' argument which is the top level
image in the chain we want to relabel, but parent does not necessarily
refer to the topmost image and you actually want to know if 'parent' is
the topmost image.

Clearing this here ...

... would skip the remembering for the top level image's external data
store file imagelabel. Since the data store is equivalent to the top
level image in terms of labelling we should restore the label there as
well.

Please add a comment stating what that flag means in addition to the
name change.

Same as in the DAC driver.
