Re: [libvirt PATCH 2/2] conf: log error on attempts to modify ACPI index of active device

The ACPI index of a device in a running guest can't be modified, and libvirt doesn't actually attempt to modify it, but it was possible for a user to request such a modification, and libvirt wouldn't complain, thus misleading the user into thinking that it had actually been changed.
