I haven't looked forward to patch 3/3 yet, but perhaps it'd be better in
the "caller" that cares to :

    if (qemu*() < 0) {
        virErrorPtr err = virGetLastError();
        if (err && err->code == VIR_ERR_OPERATION_INVALID) {
            /* Do something specific */
        }
    }

Returning -2 alters virDomainBlockJobAbort expected return values and
well that's probably not a good idea since we don't know if some caller
has said (if virDomainBlockJobAbort() == -1) instead of <= -1
