It's not clear to me why we need to introduce this field to stash
flags values. bs->open_flags already has this information.
Originally this was introduced in 06d9260ffa9 ("qcow2: implement
bdrv_invalidate_cache (v2)") for qcow2. I wonder if that field is
necessary when we already have bs->open_flags.
What I don't like about s->flags is that it duplicates state *and*
it's done in each block driver that supports .bdrv_invalidate_cache().
So I wonder if we can drop it?
