Is there an error message missing (before the call to exit)?

Patch seems OK otherwise.

libvirt still uses

  -watchdog <model> -watchdog-action <action>

Should it be changed to use -device?  I'm guessing for backwards
compatibility with old and current qemu it probably shouldn't be
changed for a few years.
