Fair enough. I don't have any evidence. Let me remove the whole function.

I'm not sure what you mean. If value 0 is passed then the parser won't
set def->features[VIR_DOMAIN_FEATURE_TCG] so this function exits early.
Do you want me to put if (val > 0) check here or something different?

Fair enough. I thought that in this case it borderline okay, but I don't
care that much really.
