The virFileReadAll method already reports error messages.

To ignore results you can instead do

    ignore_value(ifaceSetMacaddr(linkdev, oldmac));
    ignore_value(unlink(path));

Missing a 'return -1' here, and 'replaceMacAddress already reports
an error message, so no need todo so again.

Again, restoreMacAddress already reports an error message. No
neeed for a 'return -1' here, since we need to make a best
effort to run the next bit of code too.

Normal coding style for libvirt is to have a space
before & after the () on an 'if' condition
