That might be misleading output. Stating 90% fragmented makes sense (90
percent of my allocations are disjoint), but stating 90% compressed has
two possible interpretations (of the unknown number of clusters that
were compressed, I got an impressive 90% compression ratio; vs. 90% of
the clusters are compressed, but no idea what compression ratio that
actually gave me). Obviously, you meant the latter interpretation (we
aren't telling the percentage of saved disk space due to compression,
merely how much of the disk has been compressed). Maybe "%0.2f%% of
clusters use compression" would more accurately express things, but it
ends up being longer. Any other thoughts on avoiding an ambiguity?

Did you really intend to lose the filtering of 'fragmented$'?

I think I've mentioned this on other pending patches that touch this
same function...
/me goes looking
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2013-01/msg05364.html
'grep -v | sed' is slightly inefficient compared to:
sed -e '/compressed$/d' \
-e 's/qemu-img:.../'
\: is not portable sed, so we should be fixing it up as long as we are
touching this.
