Instead of having error_report() calls deep down in device code, could
we just pass an Error **errp VirtioDeviceClass.load/save() and print the
error in virtio_load/save()?

And the next step would then be to change virtio_load/save() to take an
Error **errp and to switch virtio_vmstate_info from .get/.put to
.load/.save that actually allow returning an error.

Is this to break the loop in get_scsi_requests() instead of silently
ignoring the error? Wouldn't it be better to actually use the return
value from this function there (and to pass errors up instead of always
returning 0)?

More context:

    if (virtio_scsi_parse_req(req, sizeof(VirtIOSCSICmdReq) + vs->cdb_size,
                              sizeof(VirtIOSCSICmdResp) + vs->sense_size) < 0) {
        error_report("invalid SCSI request migration data");
        exit(1);
    }

I think if you want to avoid crashes, you'll also want to avoid exit(1)
calls? Though maybe that's a separate patch because it's unrelated to
qemu_get_virtqueue_element().
