[PATCH v3 0/4] spapr: Improve error reporting in spapr_caps.c


From: Greg Kurz
Subject: [PATCH v3 0/4] spapr: Improve error reporting in spapr_caps.c

User-agent: StGit/0.21

Spapr capabilities are checked at machine init. If a capability cannot
be used, an error message is printed and QEMU exits. In most places,
the error message also contains an hint for the user. But we should
use error_append_hint() for that, as explained in the "qapi/error.h"
header.

This is already the case for cap_fwnmi_apply() and we now want to add 
a similar check for nested KVM-HV. Unfortunately, spapr_caps_apply()
passes &error_fatal to all apply hooks and error_append_hint() is
never called. 

So this reuses previous work from Vladimir Sementsov-Ogievskiy to
address that.

v3: - Add preliminary patch to use warn_report() instead of
      a convoluted error_setg()+warn_report_err() sequence
v2: - Fix indentation and add some missing \n in patch 2
    - Add ERRP_AUTO_PROPAGATE() to cap_nested_kvm_hv_apply() in
      patch 2 instead of patch 3
