Stefan Hajnoczi 745a9bb9cd dataplane: fix virtio_blk_data_plane_create() op blocker error path
Commit 3718d8ab65 ("block: Replace in_use
with operation blocker") broke the error path because it consumed
local_err instead of propagating it.

The caller has no way to know that the function failed.  This caused
virtio-blk to start "successfully" even though there was a fatal
dataplane error.

Steps to reproduce:

  $ qemu-system-x86_64 -enable-kvm -object iothread,id=iothread0 \
                       -drive if=none,id=drive0,file=a.img \
  (qemu) drive_mirror drive0 /tmp/foo.img
  (qemu) device_add virtio-blk-pci,iothread=iothread0,drive=drive0

Expected result:

  Since the mirror block job is using drive0 it is not possible to start
  virtio-blk data-plane.

  device_add fails and the PCI adapter is not added.

Actual result:

  device_add completes and the PCI adapter is added.
