Thank you very much for your review. I have double checked, and I
remembered correctly: error_setg_errno saves and restores the original
errno, so that is why I assumed it does not.

But now that you have this pointed out, I understand, it is better to
have no function calls between failure and saving the errno. I will post
a v3 and keep this in mind for the future. Sorry for the extra work.
Frankly, I'm a bit uncomfortable with asking (do not want to be pushy),
but do you have an opinion on the 'error_report_err' issue (pointed
out in the cover letter part)?
Cheers,
