This error message comes from QEMU. Unfortunately, it doesn't say why
locking the file failed. Is there perhaps some additional info in the audit
log?
IMO there's another qemu where the 'readonly=on' command line property
or thus the <readonly> property in the XML is missing and thus it's
opened in write mode. Readers are forbidden then.
