[Qemu-devel] [PATCH] error: Drop bogus "use error_setg() instead" admonitions

[Qemu-devel] [PATCH] error: Drop bogus "use error_setg() instead" admonitions

[Markus Armbruster]

Commit 97f40301f1d "error: Functions to report warnings and
informational messages" copied the "use error_setg() instead"
admonition from the error reporting functions to new functions even
though it doesn't actually apply there.  Drop it.  Also drop it from
vreport(), where it doesn't apply anymore.
