Currently, when QEMU fails to load images (kernel, BIOS, initrd) via
load_image_targphys(), the error messages are not descriptive enough
for users to understand why the loading failed. This series adds the
ability to pass Error information through the loader functions to
provide more detailed error reporting.

v2:
- Use qemu_open() instead of open() in get_image_size() (danpb)
- Remove redundant error_setg_file_open() call (danpb)
- Use error_prepend()/error_reportf_err() to preserve underlying
  error details (danpb)

Vishal Chourasia (5):
  hw/core/loader: capture Error from load_image_targphys
  hw/core/loader: Use qemu_open() instead of open() in get_image_size()
  hw/core: Pass errp to load_image_targphys_as()
  hw/ppc/spapr: Rename resize_hpt_err to errp
  hw/ppc: Pass errp to load_image_targphys() and report errors
