Maybe in this style it tells clearly the code exclude the situation
that device is a "cdrom" without "disk".
So maybe it is the case to let it explicit comment block.

I have only seen this now, but it could be improved in the case of
source being empty. Now you free and strdup it to the same value.

This patch tried to provide libvirt-cim the capability to show instance
of empty cdrom, so it used many "if" , tried consider only the
situation about cdrom and its disk, to avoid effecting other
functionalities.
I understand, but IMO, we should always try to follow the "keep it
simple" principle, with clearer code and also as performatic as possible.
