    qcow2: Allow 'cache-clean-interval' in Linux only
    
    The cache-clean-interval option of qcow2 only works on Linux. However
    we allow setting it in other systems regardless of whether it works or
    not.
    
    In those systems this option is not simply a no-op: it actually
    invalidates perfectly valid cache tables for no good reason without
    freeing their memory.
    
    This patch forbids using that option in non-Linux systems.
