[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v13 08/14] qapi: Shorter visits of optional fields

[Eric Blake <eblake@redhat.com>]

For less code, reflect the determined boolean value of an optional
visit back to the caller instead of making the caller read the
boolean after the fact.

The resulting generated code has the following diff:

|-    visit_optional(v, &has_fdset_id, "fdset-id");
|-    if (has_fdset_id) {
|+    if (visit_optional(v, &has_fdset_id, "fdset-id")) {
|         visit_type_int(v, &fdset_id, "fdset-id", &err);
|         if (err) {
|             goto out;
|         }
|     }
