Aside from that, I would prefer if we could consolidate to *fewer* calls
to virNetDevBandwidthSet() rather than adding more special case warts on
the code. If the current calls to that function could be moved up in the
call stack from their current low-level locations that are specific to a
particular type of interface, perhaps they could all converge to a
single place. Then, that single place could make the call for all
interface types that supported bandwidth setting, and log an error
message for all interface types that didn't support it.

(as a matter of fact, I would eventually like to get all stuff like this
moved into the equivalent location to networkAllocateActualDevice(), so
that 1) a single call would take care of *everything* for a network
device, regardless of type, and 2) it would be possible to place that
single function behind a public API that could be callable from
session-mode libvirtd to enable unprivileged guests to have access to
all the different types of network connectivity.)
