Please look at the code. Tap device is not created for network interface
type ethernet. virNetDevTapCreate creates the tap device, which eventually
gets called from qemuNetworkIfaceConnect and this applies to interface
types network or bridge. For ethernet type interfaces, the onus is on the
user to create the tap device in the first place before configuring
bandwidth for it. 

So, there is no point in changing any code here, if the tap device doesn’t
exist and the vm configuration file has an entry for it, then libvirt is
supposed to throw the error message to let the user know about it.
