I would try as much as possible to have it merged into 4.14. Considering
that it is not simple to map all the garbage snapshots on secondary storage.

The proposed PR [1] should, in theory, fix also for XenServer. However, I
did not test it for XenServer so far.
Today I am deploying a XenServer cluster to check it. If someone else could
also hammer that PR and see if it works fine would be great :-)
