Here you handle the case where there's no backing file, but other
functions (eg. track_co_block_status) simply assume that `bs->backing`
is always valid.
Is this intentional?
It makes me also wonder - since you just zero out the iov below - if
this driver could maybe also replace the current zeroinit filter?
Otherwise it's at least a good reminder that the zeroinit code could
start making use of bitmaps as well ;-)
