Re: [libvirt PATCH] vmx: Don't error out on missing filename for cdrom

This is perfectly valid in VMWare and the VM just boots with an empty drive. We used to just skip the whole drive before, but since we changed how we parse empty cdrom drives this now results in an error and the user not being able to even dump the XML. Instead of erroring out, just keep the drive empty.
