You could do the same thing those functions do:

    * the zPCI address is empty if both uid and fid are zero;
uid=0 and fid=0 can't mean zPCI address is empty, because the user might
only define fid with 0. If fid=0 has been assigned, we should report
error. If
it is not defined by user, fid is also 0, then we should allocate a
valid value
for fid.
For the PCI part

   <address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00'
                       slot='0x00' function='0x0'/>

behaves the same as

   <address type='pci'/>

and results in a PCI address being allocated automatically by
libvirt rather than an error being reported.

As with zPCI, zero is a valid value for some, but not all, of the
attributes: validation is performed if at least one of them is
non-zero and might result in an error being reported.

Doing the same with the zPCI part would not only allow you to get
rid of the extra booleans but would also guarantee a consistent
behavior, which is a worthy goal in and of itself.

I want to ask a question. For pci address, any pci device can't use slot 0.
Is that a reason why PCI part could treat all zeros as empty address?

For zPCI address, if we use the same strategy as PCI part and user
wants to assign fid=0 to the specific device, he might encounter
assignment failure. At least, according to the doc, 0 shoud be a valid
value to assign to fid.

Anyway, when I wrote this code, I also wanted to use the similar logic to
check if zPCI address is empty.
