[libvirt] [PATCH] Fix failure to detect missing cgroup partitions

From: "Daniel P. Berrange" <berrange@redhat.com> Change bbe97ae968eba60b71e0066d49f9fc909966d9d6 caused the QEMU driver to ignore ENOENT errors from cgroups, in order to cope with missing /proc/cgroups. This is not good though because many other things can cause ENOENT and should not be ignored. The callers expect to see ENXIO when cgroups are not present, so adjust the code to report that errno when /proc/cgroups is missing Signed-off-by: Daniel P.
