The real problem here is that the device-tree API is self-asserting.
This looks the old _nofail system that we removed but just named in
reverse. The correct solution here is to use the Error API properly.
Convert qemu_fdt_getprop to accept an Error **, and all existing users
are converted to pass &error_fatal. This will preserve existing
behaviour. Then to use the API with your optional semantic your pass
NULL for the Error **.

Peter
