It doesn't matter. The code works well with already existing files. It
has to. Imagine two disks, both with the same backing file:
diskA = /dev/diskA -> /dev/diskBacking
diskB = /dev/diskB -> /dev/diskBacking
Now when diskA is created in the namespace both diskA and diskBacking
files are created. Then, when diskB is created we can't fail if
diskBacking already exists. Therefore the code is written so that it
accepts pre-existing files.

Take a look at qemuDomainCreateDevice() and search for errno == EEXIST
lines. They are always followed with ret = 0;
