Is there a specific reason for your assertion? Given what scenario?
1) create a VM
by virt-manger with a virtio disk and a cd-rom
2) set boot order of them
3) Try to eject a CD-rom device, such as installing an OS with multiple DVDs
i. e: virsh change-media ...
4) got:
unsupported configuration: boot order 2 is already used by another device.
virDomainDefCompatibleDevice is called from Attach and Update qemu/lxc
code currently.
I dunno, but if someone is trying to attach or update a floppy/cdrom and
wanted to use a boot index in use by something else, then I would think
inhibiting that is a good idea...
We updated the source file of floppy/cdrom, which is not a hotplug operation,
so the boot order check should be skipped.

Typically the deref would be something like virDomainDiskDefPtr disk =
device->data.disk; and then "disk->device"
BTW: @device would then no longer be ATTRIBUTE_UNUSED.
