From: Max Reitz <mreitz@redhat.com>

The block layer takes care of removing the bs->file child if the block
driver's bdrv_open()/bdrv_file_open() implementation fails. The block
driver therefore does not need to do so, and indeed should not unless it
sets bs->file to NULL afterwards -- because if this is not done, the
bdrv_unref_child() in bdrv_open_inherit() will dereference the freed
memory block at bs->file afterwards, which is not good.

We can now decide whether to add a "bs->file = NULL;" after each of the
offending bdrv_unref_child() invocations, or just drop them altogether.
The latter is simpler, so let's do that.
