Calling error_report() in a function that takes an Error ** argument
is suspicious.  9p-handle.c's handle_parse_opts() does that, and then
fails without setting an error.  Wrong.  Its caller crashes when it
tries to report the error:

     $ qemu-system-x86_64 -nodefaults -fsdev id=foo,fsdriver=handle
     qemu-system-x86_64: -fsdev id=foo,fsdriver=handle: warning: handle backend 
is deprecated
     qemu-system-x86_64: -fsdev id=foo,fsdriver=handle: fsdev: No path specified
     Segmentation fault (core dumped)

Screwed up when commit 91cda4e8f37 (v2.12.0) converted the function to
Error.  Fix by calling error_setg() instead of error_report().

Hi Markus,

FWIW you had a Reviewed-by from Eric.

Most likely crossed mail. Although I composed my v2 review Monday, an ISP outage prevented it from hitting the list until Tuesday after Markus had prepared v3. (And the fact that a small fire near Dallas was able to take out internet access for more than a million AT&T customers for more than 12 hours makes you appreciate how much we really rely on the Internet in modern society)
