So far we are repeating the following lines over and over:
if (!(virSomeObjectClass = virClassNew(virClassForObject(),
"virSomeObject",
sizeof(virSomeObject),
virSomeObjectDispose)))
return -1;
While this works, it is impossible to do some checking. Firstly,
the class name (the 2nd argument) doesn't match the name in the
code in all cases (the 3rd argument). Secondly, the current style
is needlessly verbose. This commit turns example into following:
if (!(VIR_CLASS_NEW(virSomeObject,
virClassForObject)))
return -1;

If the vhost-scsi device file cannot be found, the generic error
"error: An error occurred, but the cause is unknown"
is returned. Let's add a real error message to make it clear
why the failure occurred.
We cannot be sure someone initialized the passed *vhostfd and we
certainly don't want or need to be calling VIR_FORCE_CLOSE on what
probably is -1. So let's just return -1 immediately.
We will need this function in near future so that we know what
/dev device corresponds to the SCSI device.

For a new hostdev type='scsi_host' we have a number of
required functions for managing, adding, and removing the
host device to/from guests. Provide the basic infrastructure
for these tasks.
The name "SCSIVHost" (and its variants) is chosen to avoid
conflicts with existing code named "SCSIHost" to refer to
a hostdev type='scsi' protcol='none'.
