If virDomainAttachDevice() was called with an image that was located

an attempt to change the selinux label of the image with EACCES (which
isn't covered as an ignore case in SELinuxSetFilecon())

NFS doesn't support SELinux labelling anyway, so we mimic the failure
handling of commit 93a18bbafaf11729d3ca1241e11bee133d77fa77, which
just ignores the errors if the target is on an NFS filesystem (in
SELinuxSetSecurityAllLabel() only, though.)

I had to scratch my head on this one.  It might be easier to read as:

if (ret<  0&&
     virStorageFileIsSharedFSType(path, VIR_STORAGE_FILE_SHFS_NFS) == 1)
     return 0;
return ret;

ACK, with that tweak.


Heh. The power of cut-paste - I had pasted the call to virStorageFileIsSharedFSType() from another use further down the file, and it used != 1. Since I was already thinking in that mode, it easily made sense to me, but coming from the outside it does seem simpler your way.

I pushed after making your change, as well as changing both occurences of "return 0" to "ret = 0" so that the function now has only a single exit point.
