AFAICT, this is because the node name is not set in the original options
for the block driver state and then it wrongly detects an attempt to
change the node name (even if specifying the correct auto-generated one
during reopen). However, it is rather ugly to try and use a -drive
together with blockdev-reopen in any case, blockdev-reopen is really
written with -blockdev in mind and -blockdev necessarily requires
setting node-name up front.

I don't think it's even worth fixing that bug. We should use
blockdev-reopen only after switching to -blockdev, it's much nicer like
that :)

I'd still be in favor of querying the node-name of drives with
query-block before doing QMP operations though. Like that, we can
warn/error if it doesn't match what we expect for example, to catch
unexpected situations.
