In commit 68580a51, I removed the checks for NULL cmd variables because virCommandRun() already handles the case where it is called with a NULL cmd. Unfortunately, it handles this case by raising a generic error which is both unhelpful and overwrites our existing error message. So for example, when I attempt to create a mediated device with an invalid parent, I get the following output:
virsh # nodedev-create mdev-test.xml error: Failed to create node device from mdev-test.xml error: internal error: invalid use of command API
With this patch, I now get a useful error message again:
virsh # nodedev-create mdev-test.xml error: Failed to create node device from mdev-test.xml error: internal error: unable to find parent device 'pci_0000_00_03_0'
