The option was deprecated in 4.0.0 (commit 0ae2d546); it's now been
long enough with no complaints to follow through with that process.

-The ``qemu-nbd --partition $digit'' code (also spelled @option{-P})

-logical partitions beyond partition 5. If you know the offset and
-length of the partition (perhaps by using @code{sfdisk} within the

-the disk by use of the @option{--image-opts} option with a raw
-blockdev using the @code{offset} and @code{size} parameters layered on
-top of any other existing blockdev. For example, if partition 1 is
-100MiB long starting at 1MiB, the old command:
-
-@code{qemu-nbd -t -P 1 -f qcow2 file.qcow2}

-@code{qemu-nbd -t --image-opts
driver=raw,offset=1M,size=100M,file.driver=qcow2,file.backing.driver=file,file.backing.filename=file.qcow2}

-Alternatively, the @code{nbdkit} project provides a more powerful
-partition filter on top of its nbd plugin, which can be used to select
-an arbitrary MBR or GPT partition on top of any other full-image NBD
-export. Using this to rewrite the above example results in:
-
-@code{qemu-nbd -t -k /tmp/sock -f qcow2 file.qcow2 &}
-@code{nbdkit -f --filter=partition nbd socket=/tmp/sock partition=1}

-Note that if you are exposing the export via /dev/nbd0, it is easier
-to just export the entire image and then mount only /dev/nbd0p1 than
-it is to reinvoke @command{qemu-nbd -c /dev/nbd0} limited to just a
-subset of the image.
