blkid: Use -c /dev/null option to kill the cache.

2011-07-20T14:58:38+00:00

On recent Debian, /etc/blkid.tab is now a symlink to /dev/.blkid.tab.
Rather than chasing the cache file around (it may move to /run in future)
use the -c /dev/null option to stop blkid from reading the cache.

blkid: Detect when value not found and return empty string.

2011-07-20T14:57:56+00:00

If the blkid command returns 2, that means the value was not found.

Note that this changes the output of the vfs-type API when the
filesystem has no type (eg when it is empty).  Previously this would
return an error.  Now it returns empty string "".

We did not document this either way.  Making it return empty string is
consistent with vfs-label and vfs-uuid.

This change broke list-filesystems, since that code was assuming that
vfs-type could only return a filesystem type or an error.

docs: Update stable release instructions.

It appears qemu-kvm does *not* require -machine accel=tcg option.
That problem disappeared after upgrading seabios(!)  However leave the
test for qemu -help option, since that's useful to determine if qemu
is completely broken or not.
