We call ppce500_init_mpic_kvm() to create a "kvm-openpic". If it fails, we call ppce500_init_mpic_qemu() to fall back to plain "openpic". ppce500_init_mpic_kvm() uses qdev_init(). qdev_init()'s error handling has an unwanted side effect: it calls qerror_report_err(), which prints to stderr. Looks like an error, but isn't. In QMP context, it would stash the error in the monitor instead, making the QMP command fail. Fortunately, it's only called from board initialization, never in QMP context. Clean up by cutting out the qdev_init() middle-man: set property "realized" directly. While there, improve the error message when we can't satisfy an explicit user request for "kvm-openpic", and exit(1) instead of abort().
