Subject: [PATCH] storage: Add helper to retrieve the backing store string of a
 storage volume

It is necessary for some parts of the code to refresh just data
based on the based on the backing store string. Add a convenience
function that will retrieve this data.

(cherry picked from commit d97cfdc891f262e1b0cd3ed05f7ca2bb7ef7de1c)
