OK, I understand and you are right, my error was to consider that 
get_zdev_by_fh() returns a zdev associated with a valid FH for the guest 
while it returns a zdev associated with a valid FH for the host.

If the comment would have been after the get_zdev_by_fh() and before the 
test I may be wouldn't have done this mistake.

No, I do not think we should anymore.
Sorry for this wrong idea.
