Is the revocation code correctly placed though?  I mean, it seems to follow
from the patch that we need to revoke as soon as
qemuDomainStorageSourceChainAccessAllow() succeeds.  However, the revocation
call is conditioned by there being 'data' or 'crdata' (among other things).

What happens if qemuDomainStorageSourceChainAccessAllow() succeeds but the
first subsequent attempt to retrieve 'data' or 'crdata' (whichever comes first)
fails?  These failures are handled by 'goto endjob' which reaches the clean-up
section apparently with both 'data' and 'crdata' still being NULL but
'need_revoke' true. If the above is correct, that would mean the 'if
(need_revoke)' code is never reached and no revocation performed.

What am I missing?
