This is because the XML schema for maxMemory requires the element.
Unfortunately the XML schema validator from libxml2 has extremely
user-unfriendly errors.

This is the error from the XML parser which has human-crafter errors.

Is there a way how to detect that it's not needed? E.g. via the QMP
schema or such?

In this instance we could perhaps drop it and let qemu report the error
... well if it's reasonable though.
