[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 2/4] blockdev: Don't call create_implicit_virtio_device() when it has no effect

[Peter Maydell <peter.maydell@linaro.org>]

create_implicit_virtio_device() just adds a device to the "device" QEMU
options list. This means that it only has an effect if it is called
before vl.c processes that list to create all the devices. If it is
called after that (ie for hotplug drives created from the monitor) then
it has no effect. To avoid confusion, don't call the code at all if
it isn't going to do anything.
