QEMU currently crashes when trying to use a 'pc-dimm' on the pseries machine without specifying its 'memdev' property. This happens because pc_dimm_get_memory_region() does not check whether the 'memdev' property has properly been set by the user. Looking closer at this function, it's also obvious that it is using &error_abort to call another function - and this is bad in a function that is used in the hot-plugging calling chain since this can also cause QEMU to exit unexpectedly. So let's fix these issues in a proper way now: Add a "Error **errp" parameter to pc_dimm_get_memory_region() which we use in case the 'memdev' property has not been set by the user, and which we can use instead of the &error_abort, and change the callers of get_memory_region() to make use of this "errp" parameter for proper error checking.
