O-Subject: [RHEL-8.0 qemu-kvm PATCH 12/15] qcow2: Set the default cache-clean-interval to 10 minutes
Bugzilla: 1656507

From: Leonid Bloch <lbloch@janustech.com>

The default cache-clean-interval is set to 10 minutes, in order to lower
the overhead of the qcow2 caches (before the default was 0, i.e.
disabled).

* For non-Linux platforms the default is kept at 0, because
  cache-clean-interval is not supported there yet.
