When building a commandline for a DIMM memory device with non-default access mode, the qemuBuildMemoryBackendProps() will tell QEMU to allocate memory from per-domain memory backing dir. But later, when preparing the host, the qemuProcessNeedMemoryBackingPath() does not check for memory devices at all resulting in per-domain memory backing dir not being created which upsets QEMU.
