s/as well/first.

No paragraph, how about "This patch therefore introduces virGetLasErrorCode
function which always returns a valid error code, thus dropping the need to
perform any checks on the error object".

You mentioned this in the cover letter already, no need to have it in the commit
messages too ;).

As you noted in the cover letter, ^this one is essentially identical to
virGetLastErrorCode, minus the "1 vs err->code" and since VIR_ERR_OK == 0, you
can use virGetLastErrorCode the same way as you used virHasLastError as a
replacement in many occurrences of virGetLastError(), so I don't see the need
for this function.

I can see a need for ^this function, even though we don't have an immediate use
case for it internally, it's still a public API which someone else might
consume, otherwise they'd have to query the object itself.
