blockcommit --pivot does not succeed in conjunction with qemu 5.0.0

Maybe:

from 6.3.0 release notes:

- qemu: Fix domain restore from a block device
     When using namespaces, libvirt was unable to restore a domain from a 
block device because libvirt tried to relabel the device inside the 
namespace while QEMU was given FD to the block device in the host.

cheers, t.
