Ah, so we did not report warning for vhostuser, but for everything else
we do.

I'm not sure I understand. The code looks something like this:

  switch (actualType) {
    case VIR_DOMAIN_NET_TYPE_NETWORK:
    case VIR_DOMAIN_NET_TYPE_BRIDGE:
        createTapDevice();
        break;

        ....
    case VIR_DOMAIN_NET_TYPE_VHOSTUSER:
        ret = qemuBuildVhostuserCommandLine();
        goto cleanup;
  }

  if (bandwidth) {
    if (bandwidthSupported(actualType))
      setBandwidth();
    else
      VIR_WARN();
  }

Obviously, I can't just move 'if (bandwidth)' chunk before switch()
because setBandwidth() wouldn't have an interface to operate on (as it
is created in the switch). Or did you have something else on mind?
