[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 1/4] block: Warn if an if=<something> drive was also connected manually

[Peter Maydell <peter.maydell@linaro.org>]

Improve the diagnosis of command line errors where the user requested
an automatic connection of a drive (via if=<something>, or by not
setting if= and using the board-default-if). We already fail this
case if the board actually handles if=<something>, but if the board
did not auto-connect the drive we should at least warn about the
problem, since the most likely reason is a forgotten if=none, and
this command line might become an error if the board starts handling
this if= type in future.

To do this we need to identify when a drive is automatically
connected by the board; we do this by assuming that all calls
to blk_by_legacy_dinfo() imply that we're about to assign the
drive to a device. This is a slightly ugly place to make the
test, but simpler than trying to locate and change every place
in the code that does automatic drive handling, and the worst
case is that we might print out a spurious warning.
