[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v2 1/2] vfio: warn if host device rom can't be read

[Bandan Das]

If the device rom can't be read, report an error to the
user. This alerts the user that the device has a bad
state that is causing rom read failure or option rom
loading has been disabled from the device boot menu
(among other reasons).

v2: Removed the macros to print only once. We want to print
the warning message for each assigned device for which rom 
read fails
