After looping through all command-line arguments, error location info becomes obsolete, and any function calling error_report() will print misleading information. This breaks error reporting for some option handling, like:
$ qemu-system-x86_64 -icount rr=x -vnc :0 qemu-system-x86_64: -vnc :0: Invalid icount rr option: x $ qemu-system-x86_64 -m size= -vnc :0 qemu-system-x86_64: -vnc :0: missing 'size' option value Fix this by resetting location info as soon as we exit the command-line handling loop. With this, replay_configure() and set_memory_options() won't print any location info yet, but at least they won't print incorrect information.
