Isn't query-nodes the only way to get wr_highest_offset for the protocol
layer? oVirt depends on this, as far as I know.
Libvirt just invokes 'query-blockstats' with no arguments, so is not
relying on 'query-nodes' working. Given that libvirt doesn't use it,
it doesn't seem like this is relevant for oVirt unless they were
using QMP passthrough from libvirt. That this has been broken
since v2.9 though rather suggests oVirt doesn't use it.
