The error exits of xen_pv_find_xendev() free the new xen-device via
g_free() which is wrong.

As the xen-device has been initialized as qdev it must be removed
via qdev_unplug().

This bug has been introduced with commit 3a6c9172ac5951e6dac2b3f6
("xen: create qdev for each backend device").

Hi Peter,

do you think this is acceptable?

Thanks,

Stefano

The set of operations here is basically what I suggested
in review of v1, so I think it is the right thing.
OTOH this is a bit of an odd corner of the QOM model
so it might be worth doing some testing to make sure
the reference counts are doing what you (I) expect and
that the object does get correctly freed both in the
error-handling path here and when the device is
unplugged via xen_pv_del_xendev().

thanks

I've used my_g_free() printing a log message when called instead of
g_free() in a test. I could verify it has been called when the
device was unplugged. This test covered xen_pv_del_xendev() and
an error handling path.

Thanks Juergen for testing. I'll commit shortly.
