No need to assign to 'ret' here. It is initialized to -1 right at the
top, and set to 0 on success later. So this intermediate assingment
is a latent bug waiting to happen.

Generally we aim to only have 3 label names 'error' or 'cleanup' or
'no_memory'. Inthis case you want 'error'. I'd refactor it to allow
fallthrough from 'no_memory' to 'error' thus:

   no_memory:
    virReportOOMError();
   error:
    virStorageVolDefFree(def);
    return -1;

which is our normal coding pattern for this scenario.
