[PATCH v4 1/2] kvm: replace fprintf with error_report/printf() in kvm_init()

[Ani Sinha]

error_report() is more appropriate for error situations. Replace fprintf with
error_report. Cosmetic. No functional change.

The use of %m gave me pause.  It's a GNU extension, but this
Linux-specific code, so it's fine.

Note: the code assigning to @type is responsible for reporting an error

not your patch's problem.

We don't normally report a numeric errno code in additon to its
description text.  Should we use the opportunity to drop it here?

Please keep the \n at the end of the string literal:

               error_printf("Host kernel setup problem detected."
                            " Please verify:\n");

Opportunity to break this line like we break the others:

                            " sysctl, whether it is enabled\n");

This is an error message, so it should be marked as such:

           error_report("kvm does not support %s", missing_cap->name);
           error_printf("%s", upgrade_note);

There are a few more uses of fprintf() for reporting errors in kvm.c.
Would be nice to have them cleaned up.  This is not a demand.

[PATCH v4 2/2] kvm: refactor core virtual machine creation into its own function

[Ani Sinha]

Refactoring the core logic around KVM_CREATE_VM into its own separate function
so that it can be called from other functions in subsequent patches. There is
no functional change in this patch.
