No, it'll crash :)
An @errp argument must point to a null pointer. If it doesn't, setting
an error will trip error_setv()'s assertion.

qapi/error.h's big comment advises:
* Receive and accumulate multiple errors (first one wins):
* Error *err = NULL, *local_err = NULL;
* foo(arg, &err);
* bar(arg, &local_err);
* error_propagate(&err, local_err);
* if (err) {
* handle the error...
* }
*
* Do *not* "optimize" this to
* Error *err = NULL;
* foo(arg, &err);
* bar(arg, &err); // WRONG!
* if (err) {
* handle the error...
* }
* because this may pass a non-null err to bar().
*
* Likewise, do *not*
* Error *err = NULL;
* if (cond1) {
* error_setg(&err, ...);
* }
* if (cond2) {
* error_setg(&err, ...); // WRONG!
* }
* because this may pass a non-null err to error_setg().
The quoted code is like the last example, except the error_setg() lurk
within the functions called.
