[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 17/19] baum: Chardev open error reporting, braille part

[Markus Armbruster]

Convert to error_report().  Improves user-hostile messages like this
one

    baum_init: brlapi_openConnection: connect: No such file or directory
    chardev: opening backend "braille" failed

to

    qemu-system-x86_64: -chardev braille,id=foo: Can't open braille: connect: 
No such file or directory
    chardev: opening backend "braille" failed

The uninformative extra "opening backend failed" message will be
cleaned up shortly.
