We actually block reverting to this type of snapshot, see
" revert to a non-full internal snapshot not supported yet" in qemuSnapshotRevertValidate.
Given this, is this change still required?
Actually I'm not sure I understand. Is setting dom_disk->src->snapshot enough?
Or can you please point me to another place in the code where a change is required?
