[PATCH 0/2] hw/block/block.c: improve confusing error

[Manos Pitsidianakis <manos.pitsidianakis@linaro.org>]

In cases where a device tries to read more bytes than the block device 
contains with the blk_check_size_and_read_all() function, the error is 
vague: "device requires X bytes, block backend provides Y bytes".

This patch changes the errors of this function to include the block
backend name, the device id and device type name where appropriate.

Manos Pitsidianakis (2):
  hw/core/qdev.c: add qdev_get_human_name()
  hw/block/block.c: improve confusing blk_check_size_and_read_all()
