[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v2 2/7] qom: Handle property lookup failure in object_resolve_link

[Fam Zheng]

Since we have made object_set_link_property a public function, it is
possible that it will be called with a nonexistent property name.  Let's
survive this error case and report error to avoid segfault in the future.
