To prepare for migration to realize, let's use a local error
object in vfio_initfn. Also let's use the same error prefix for all
error messages.

On top of the 1-1 conversion, we start using a common error prefix for
all error messages. We also introduce a similar warning prefix which will
be used later on.

Any particular reason you don't use error_setg_errno() here?

Suggest

           ret = len < 0 ? -errno : -ENAMETOOLONG;
           error_setg_errno(&err, -ret, "no iommu_group found");

The value assigned to ret doesn't matter as long as it's negative, which
makes me wonder why we bother with different values here.  Peeking
ahead, I see you simplify this already as part of your conversion to
realize().  Okay, that works for me.

We already discussed error message prefixes and errno strings.  I got my
taste, you got yours.  Since this is your code, yours wins :)

I hesitated and eventually removed into thinking it was not bringing
much value. But not strong opinion here, I will restore it.

Sure. Eventually ret will disappear so we will come back to

At that stage it was a 1-1 conversion. Indeed this eventually disappears.

Here is a sample output. Using qmp interactively you easily get to know
which device BDF produced the error. Also qemu prints the -device option
which lead to the error.

(QEMU) device_add driver=vfio-pci host=0000:01:10.0 bus=head.2 addr=0x14
{"error": {"class": "GenericError", "desc": "vfio error: 0000:01:10.0:
error opening /dev/vfio/6: No such file or directory"}}

qemu-system-aarch64: -device vfio-pci,host=0000:01:10.0: vfio error:
0000:01:10.0: error opening /dev/vfio/6: No such file or directory

However in case of more complex usage (qmp scripts?), might be helpful
to get the BDF directly in the error output?

Thanks

Eric
