[Qemu-devel] [PATCH] xen-platform: Replace assert() with appropriate error reporting

[Eduardo Habkost]

Commit dbb7405d8caad0814ceddd568cb49f163a847561 made it possible to
trigger an assert using "-device xen-platform". Replace it with
appropriate error reporting.

Before:

  $ qemu-system-x86_64 -device xen-platform
  qemu-system-x86_64: hw/i386/xen/xen_platform.c:391: xen_platform_initfn: 
Assertion `xen_enabled()' failed.
  Aborted (core dumped)
  $

After:

  $ qemu-system-x86_64 -device xen-platform
  qemu-system-x86_64: -device xen-platform: xen-platform device requires the 
Xen accelerator
  qemu-system-x86_64: -device xen-platform: Device initialization failed
  $
