Maybe, because I have also refactored it to have vmdk_get_cluster_offset()
make use of the get_cluster_table() (and friends) to avoid duplication.

I will try to split it as

1. Rename
2. Refactor it to make use of get_cluster_table() by moving that out of
patch 3 as of now.

Will that work?

I think this will also keep the compiler happy while reviewing.
