I saw an internal struct typedef-less (qemuAutostartData maybe?)
and this somehow got stuck on my mind.
But I believe modern libvirt style mandates typedef, is that correct?
I'll amend my code accordingly.

Thanks for the explanation, will add the check.

It does. I (wrongly) thought it is easier/better to have little patches
so one which add code, one which makes use of it (10/11 in this series).
Will squash with the dependent patch on the next submission.

Oops. Will fix.

Will do.

Will add.

Will purge the 'errs' parameter. It was added to closely mimic
the originating code (virDomainGetBlockInfo), but turns out
I took this too strictly and become cargo cult-ish.

Will add checks in this function to handle NULLs.

Will do.

Will do.

Will fix here and everywhere else.

Will fix.
