From: Jeff Cody <jc...@redhat.com> When starting a block job, commit_active_start() relies on whether *errp is set by mirror_start_job. This allows it to determine if the mirror job start failed, so that it can clean up any changes to open flags from the bdrv_reopen(). If errp is NULL, then it will not be able to determine if mirror_start_job failed or not.
To avoid this, use a local Error variable, and then propagate the error (if any) to errp.
