The current 'for' loop with 5 consecutive 'ifs' inside qemuBuildHostdevCommandLine can be a bit smarter: - all 5 'ifs' fails if hostdev->mode is not equal to VIR_DOMAIN_HOSTDEV_MODE_SUBSYS. This check can be moved to the start of the loop, failing to the next element immediately in case it fails; - all 5 'ifs' checks for a specific subsys->type to build the proper command line argument (virHostdevIsSCSIDevice and virHostdevIsMdevDevice do that but within a helper). Problem is that the code will keep checking for matches even if one was already found, and there is no way a hostdev will fit more than one 'if' (i.e. a hostdev can't have 2+ different types). This means that a SUBSYS_TYPE_USB will create its command line argument in the first 'if', then all other conditionals will surely fail but will end up being checked anyway. This can be avoided by adding 'continue' statements inside the first 4 conditionals.
