[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 01/20] char-socket: fix error reporting

[Amit Shah <amit.shah@redhat.com>]

From: Anthony Liguori <aliguori@us.ibm.com>

Right now the inet connect code tries all available addresses but until one
doesn't fail.  It passes local_err each time without clearing it from the
previous failure.  This can trigger an assert since the inet connect code
tries to set an error on an object != NULL.
