[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v2] block: output more error messages if failed to create temporary snapshot

[riegamaths]

From: Dunrong Huang <riegamaths@gmail.com>

If we failed to create temporary snapshot, the error message did not match
with the error, for example:

$ TMPDIR=/tmp/bad_path qemu-system-x86_64 -enable-kvm debian.qcow2 -snapshot
qemu-system-x86_64: -enable-kvm: could not open disk image /home/mathslinux/Images/debian.qcow2: No such file or directory

Indeed, the file which cant be created is /tmp/bad_path/vl.xxxxxx,  not
debian.qcow2. so the error message makes users feel confused.
