Making use of license from qmp-commands.hx:

    3. Errors, in special, are not documented. Applications should NOT check
       for specific errors classes or data (it's strongly recommended to only
       check for the "error" key)

Doesn't qapi-schema.json need updating, too?  It mentions specific error
classes that go away in this patch, such as IOError.

Suggest:

    Note: inject-nmi fails when the guest doesn't support injecting.
    Currently, only x86 guests do.
