H A Diommufd.cc1cccad8 Sun Mar 10 22:37:55 CDT 2024 Zhao Liu <zhao1.liu@intel.com> backends/iommufd: Fix missing ERRP_GUARD() for error_prepend()

As the comment in qapi/error, passing @errp to error_prepend() requires
ERRP_GUARD():

* = Why, when and how to use ERRP_GUARD() =
*
* Without ERRP_GUARD(), use of the @errp parameter is restricted:
...
* - It should not be passed to error_prepend(), error_vprepend() or
* error_append_hint(), because that doesn't work with &error_fatal.
* ERRP_GUARD() lifts these restrictions.
*
* To use ERRP_GUARD(), add it right at the beginning of the function.
* @errp can then be used without worrying about the argument being
* NULL or &error_fatal.

ERRP_GUARD() could avoid the case when @errp is &error_fatal, the user
can't see this additional information, because exit() happens in
error_setg earlier than information is added [1].

The iommufd_backend_set_fd() passes @errp to error_prepend(), to avoid
the above issue, add missing ERRP_GUARD() at the beginning of this
function.

("error: New macro ERRP_GUARD()").
