I see now the patch is all wrong, the check was supposed to be
(ctl->conn->flags & VIR_CONNECT_RO) && VIR_DOMAIN_XML_SECURE

I can omit the check, it will just result in different error message for
the user, no problem with that.

Sending a v2 (I never thought there could be this many errors in such a
small patch).
