I don't see anything wrong with this patch. In the interest of getting
this series into git, here is my:

But, I'm finding a lot of the 'next->type == VIR_STORAGE_TYPE_NVME'
sprinkled around unfortunate, here and in later patches. It seems like
there's two StorageSource cases here involving local filesystem paths:

1) Does src->path contain the <source> storage location? Answered by
virStorageSourceIsLocalStorage
2) Does src have a local path that the VM needs to access? Until now
this was always the same as #1 && src->path, but not any more.

So maybe add helpers like:

bool
virStorageSourceHasLocalResource(virStorageSourcePtr src)
{
    return next->path || next->type == VIR_STORAGE_TYPE_NVME;
}

const char *
virStorageSourceGetLocalResource(virStorageSourcePtr src)
{
    if (!virStorageSourceHasLocalResource(src))
        <error>

    if (next->type == NVME)
        <return VFIO path or error>

    return strdup(next->path);
}

I think virStorageSourceIsLocalStorage should be renamed too because now
it is ambiguous. Maybe something more explicit like SourceUsesPath, or
SourceIsLocalPath. Naming sucks obviously so suggestions welcome

With those funtions, the loop above becomes:

for (...) {
    g_autofree char *path = NULL;
    if (!HasLocalResource)
        continue
    if (!(path = GetLocalResource(...))
        error
    <do stuff with path>
}

The hasNVMe bit can then be replaced with virStorageSourceChainHasNVMe

security driver usage will be simpler too I think. But maybe I'm missing
some complication
