qcow2: fix autoclear image header update
The autoclear feature bits can be used for qcow2 file format features that are safe to "drop" by old programs that do not understand the feature. Upon opening the image file unknown autoclear feature bits are cleared and the image file header is rewritten, but this was happening too early in the code when critical header fields were not yet loaded. Process autoclear feature bits after all necessary header information has been loaded. Signed-off-by: Stefan Hajnoczi <stefanha@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Kevin Wolf <kwolf@redhat.com>
