Lack of indentation made this harder to read.

While we're here, add the closing ).

This is user-visible, so VIR_ERR_CONFIG_UNSUPPORTED is probably better.

no trailing space in the message

Your patch fails 'make check', so it needs another respin that resolves 
this ('make check -C tests TESTS=qemuxml2argvtest VIR_TEST_DEBUG=1'):

In other words, your patch silently caused pci devices to be renumbered. 
  If it was a bug in our tests for using the wrong addresses in the 
first place, then let's fix our tests; but more likely, this means your 
patch was incorrect and would break guest ABI stability if it were applied.
