'qemuDomainSupportsCheckpointsBlockjobs()' should really be used only with active VMs based on the scope of interlocking it does. This means that the inactive snapshot code path needs to do the interlocking based on what's supported: - external snapshot support was not implemented yet (bitmaps need to be propagated to the new overlay image) - internal snapshot support can be deferred to qemu Move the check inside qemuSnapshotPrepare() which has knowledge about the snapshot type and implement an explicit check for the inactive case.
