Ideally this would not attempt to acquire a write lock and let qemu-img info succeed. ``` [jelle@t14s][/tmp]%qemu-img info /var/tmp/cockpit-qr_j3e_m.qcow2 qemu-img: Could not open '/var/tmp/cockpit-qr_j3e_m.qcow2': Failed to get shared "write" lock Is another process using the image [/var/tmp/cockpit-qr_j3e_m.qcow2]? ``` Steps to reproduce: 1. Run qemu-img on an image used by a QEMU process.
