Hum ... I'm afraid it changes the semantic. If virStorageBackendForType fails because def->type is not one of the registered type for storage backend. It seems that def->type is assigned in virStoragePoolDefParseXML() with if ((ret->type = virStoragePoolTypeFromString((const char *)type)) < 0) { so there we check that the type matches a StoragePoolType but a storage backend type might be a subset. To be safe I would just remove the variable but keep if ((virStorageBackendForType(pool->def->type)) == NULL) goto cleanup; checks and exits. Then we are sure to keep the semantic.
