[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v3] qdev: Avoid type assertion in qdev_build_hotpluggable_device_list()

[Jun Li]

Currently when *obj is not a TYPE_DEVICE, qemu will abort. This patch just
fixed it. When *obj is not a TYPE_DEVICE, just do not add it to hotpluggable
device list.

This patch also fixed the following issue:
1, boot qemu using cli:
$ /opt/qemu-git-arm/bin/qemu-system-x86_64 -monitor stdio -enable-kvm \
-device virtio-scsi-pci,id=scsi0

2, device_del scsi0 via hmp using tab key(first input device_del, then press
"Tab" key).
(qemu) device_del

After step2, qemu will abort.
(qemu) device_del hw/core/qdev.c:930:qdev_build_hotpluggable_device_list:
Object 0x5555563a2460 is not an instance of type device

v3:
  According to Andreas's suggestion, do some changes. As followings:
  1, change the Subject to more meaningful.
  2, use two "return 0" to return early avoid reindentation. And I have found 
in qcow2_grow_l1_table has also used two "return 0". So accept Andreas's 
suggestion. Thanks.

v2:
  This version just do a little changes for the commit message.
As following show:
In v1,
1, boot qemu using cli:
virtio-scsi-pci,id=scsi0 -enable-kvm

In v2,
1, boot qemu using cli:
$ /opt/qemu-git-arm/bin/qemu-system-x86_64 -monitor stdio -enable-kvm \
-device virtio-scsi-pci,id=scsi0
