That's not critical - this function is only called from the device hotplug
driver API, and we only implement that for changing CDROM media in QEMU
at the moment. So nothing we actually use for real is broken.
Right, since attaching a network device isn't supported, you'd get an
error either way.
I tracked down this issue because I saw the following error when I
attempted to attach a network device:
libvir: QEMU error : XML description for unknown device type is not well
formed or invalid
I originally thought I wasn't formatting the XML properly. Once I looked
at the code, I realized that the action wasn't supported. So, this
change just saves some potential confusion.
