Looks like the patch is unnecessarily doing more things at once...

I agree calling virQEMUCapsLogProbeFailure from inside
virQEMUCapsInitQMP makes a bit more sense then doing it in the caller,
but it should be done separately. The change has nothing to do with
the purpose of this patch.

This could be moved to the "qemu_process: Persist stderr in
qemuProcessQmp struct" patch. There should be no reason for splitting
a single logical change in two patches.

This would return -1 without setting any error. The virReportError [*]
from the previous hunk would need to be repeated here. And doing so
would indicate this is a wrong place for reporting the error. The
qemuProcessQmpRun function returned -1 and thus it should have called
virReportError itself.

And as I suggested in my review for the previous version, there's no
need to have two almost identical copies of the same code in
virQEMUCapsInitQMP. Just separate the code into a new function which
will then be called twice in a new patch put before this one. Then you
don't have to change two places and even moving the
virQEMUCapsLogProbeFailure call into virQEMUCapsInitQMP will be simpler.

Just report the error [*] here instead of logging a debug message and
there will be no reason to propagate the status up in the call stack or
put it into qemuProcessQmpPtr.

Reporting the error here would also avoid the issue in one of the
following patches: qemuConnectBaselineHypervisorCPU may return -1
without reporting any error if QEMU failed to start.

And obviously the error message will need to be a bit generalized
(later once the function starts to be usable for more then probing
capabilities).

This would return -1 without reporting any error because
virPidFileReadPath returns -errno and does not set any error. Thus
VIR_DEBUG needs to be replaced with

    virReportSystemError(-rc, _("Failed to read pidfile %s"),
                         proc->pidfile);

where rc is the return value of virPidFileReadPath;
