Yes I did that in v4.
     }

     if (virProcessGetStatInfo(NULL, NULL, &rss, vm->pid, 0) < 0) {
-        virReportError(VIR_ERR_OPERATION_FAILED, "%s",
-                       _("cannot get RSS for domain"));
+        virResetLastError();

I was also trying to find a solution for the logging issue as well as a
part of v4 which clearly was incorrect.
