Not sending a v3 just for this, but if ACKed I'll also squash in

to keep the documentation consistent with the actual behaviour.
Also, the places where this is called no longer need to check for NULL
and goto cleanup. And beyond that, 2 of the three callers only use the
returned value a single time, so the code could be shortened even
further by just using "virPCIDeviceGetAddress(blah)" directly, instead
of placing that return value into a local, and then calling using the
local a single time later.
ACK for the whole patch as long as you remove the check for NULL from
all the callers of virPCIDeviceGetAddress() (and optionally eliminate
the temporary variable in the two cases where it is used only once).
