Display it as long as being set, irrelevant of FAILED status. E.g., it may also be applicable to PAUSED stage of postcopy, to provide hint on what has gone wrong.

This will change QAPI behavior by showing up error message outside !FAILED status, but it's intended and doesn't expect to break anyone.
