Investigating something else in the vicinity, I noticed that the ordering of tests was backwards. Here's the fix for that.

Also, looking at the following code, I saw that failure of virCgroupSetCpuShares could evoke no diagnostic. Now it does.

* src/lxc/lxc_driver.c (lxcSetSchedulerParameters): Ensure that "->field" is "cpu_shares" before possibly giving a diagnostic about a type for a "cpu_shares" value. Also, virCgroupSetCpuShares could fail without evoking a diagnostic. Add one. --- src/lxc/lxc_driver.c | 19 ++++++++++++------- 1 files changed, 12 insertions(+), 7 deletions(-)

Why the indentation change here?
