A return value of -2 means no error, rather than executing remaining part of
function,
it requires to return to the caller without reporting any error.
Here, a return value of -2 means "/info/L3_MON/num_rmids" is not exists, this
could happen if CMT is not supported by host. This is a valid scenario and does
not mean an error, and this function should not report any error to its caller,
and
the caller, which is virResctrlGetInfo, will continue to run its remaining
statements
normally.

Do you mean the message reported by 'VIR_INFO' should be removed and also not
adding the 'virResetLastError' line?
It might be more consistent if we keep the 'VIR_INFO' lines, because the similar
message has been emitted in checking the memory bandwidth information and
cache allocation information. But if you insist that this message should not be
shown to user or developer, I could accept that and make change to it.
