[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 30/43] hmp: do not crash on invalid SCSI hotplug

[Michael Roth]

From: Paolo Bonzini <address@hidden>

Commit 0d93692 (qdev: Convert busses to QEMU Object Model, 2012-05-02)
removed a check on the type of the bus where a SCSI disk is hotplugged.
However, hot-plugging to the wrong kind of device now causes a crash
due to either a NULL pointer dereference (avoided by the previous patch)
or a failed QOM cast.

Instead, in this case we need to use object_dynamic_cast and check for
the result, similar to what was done before that commit.
