[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 3/3] tracetool: report error on foo() instead of foo(void)

[Stefan Hajnoczi]

C functions with no arguments must be declared foo(void) instead of
foo().  The tracetool argument list parser has never accepted an empty
argument list.  This patch adds a clear error message for this error
case.
