Code inspection.

Here's my somewhat extended rationale for my fix.

The code of interest used to be in bdrv_invalidate_cache().  Have a look
at commit 5a8a30db477:

    commit 5a8a30db4771675480829d7d3bf35a138e9c35f1
    Author: Kevin Wolf <kw...@redhat.com>
    Date:   Wed Mar 12 15:59:16 2014 +0100

        block: Add error handling to bdrv_invalidate_cache()

        If it returns an error, the migrated VM will not be started, but qemu
        exits with an error message.
