There is no good reason for bdrv_drop_intermediate() to know the active layer above the subchain it is operating on - even more so, because the assumption that there is a single active layer above it is not generally true. In order to prepare removal of the active parameter, use a BdrvChildRole callback to update the backing file string in the overlay image instead of directly calling bdrv_change_backing_file().
