As explained for the previous patch the initial QEMU process actually
checks KVM if available.

Yes, hiding qmperror inside virQEMUCapsInitQMP (actually inside the new
function which will be introduced once virQEMUCapsInitQMP is refactored
as I suggested in my review for the previous patch) is definitely a good
idea.

The new function can just return directly from here...

... which means you wouldn't need to check for proc at this point.

But even now you don't need to check for proc inside the macro. Which
makes the main (though still very tiny) reason for introducing the
macro. In other words, just drop the macro and use proc->qmperr
directly.

And this would report an error even if ret == 0.

There should be no need to keep the !qemuCaps->usedQMP check after this
refactoring. See my notes to the next patch for more details.

You could even make the vairable name self-explanatory:
       char *stderr;

Just drop this.
