The @cpu_option shouldn't be NULL, otherwise assertion from g_strsplit() should be raised as below message indicates. So it's meaningless to validate @model_pices[0] in parse_cpu_option() as it shouldn't be NULL either.
qemu-system-aarch64: GLib: g_strsplit: assertion 'string != NULL' failed This just removes the check and unused message.
