Some BDS drivers have a cap on how much block status they can supply in one query (for example, NBD talking to an older server cannot inspect more than 4G per query; and qcow2 tends to cap its answers rather than cross a cluster boundary of an L1 table). Although the existing callers of bdrv_co_is_zero_fast are not passing in that large of a 'bytes' parameter, an upcoming caller wants to query the entire image at once, and will thus benefit from being able to treat adjacent zero regions in a coalesced manner, rather than claiming the region is non-zero merely because pnum was truncated and didn't match the incoming bytes.
While refactoring this into a loop, note that there is no need to assign pnum prior to calling bdrv_co_common_block_status_above() (it is guaranteed to be assigned deeper in the callstack).
