The qemu_chr_fe_write method will return -1 on EAGAIN if the
chardev backend write would block. Almost no callers of the
qemu_chr_fe_write() method check the return value, instead
blindly assuming data was successfully sent. In most cases
this will lead to silent data loss on interactive consoles,
but in some cases (eg RNG EGD) it'll just cause corruption
of the protocol being spoken.
We unfortunately can't fix the virtio-console code, due to
a bug in the Linux guest drivers, which would cause the
entire Linux kernel to hang if we delay processing of the
incoming data in any way. Fixing this requires first fixing
the guest driver to not hold spinlocks while writing to the
hvc device backend.

Clean up includes so that osdep.h is included first and headers
which it implies are not included manually.

Printing CPU registers is not helpful during machine initialization.
Moreover, these are straightforward configuration or "can get
resources" errors, so dumping core isn't appropriate either. Replace
hw_error() by error_report(); exit(1). Matches how we report these
errors in other machine initializations.

My Coccinelle semantic patch finds a few more, because it also fixes up
the equally pointless conditional
if (foo) {
free(foo);
foo = NULL;
}
Result (feel free to squash it into your patch):

After commit 767adce2d, they are redundant. This way we don't assign them
except when needed. Once there, there were lots of cases where the ".fields"
indentation was wrong:
.fields = (VMStateField []) {
and
.fields = (VMStateField []) {
Change all the combinations to:
.fields = (VMStateField[]){
The biggest problem (apart from aesthetics) was that checkpatch complained
when we copy&pasted the code from one place to another.
