Wow, I didn't even think to grep for those.  And you are right - those
are cases of nested public API calls (which we want to avoid where
possible); they should ideally be using virObjectRef() instead of the
public call (it still doesn't help our nested use of virConnectOpen() in
those same functions, but fixing that is a bigger task that would need a
separate patch, if we decide it is needed).  For this particular patch,
there is no change in behavior (we only attempt the virConnectOpen() if
we have been successful to that point, so resetting errors has no
impact), so I pushed it as is, after tweaking the commit message to
mention this discussion.  But I'll add a followup patch to my v2 series
that tries to clean up this and other nested of
virConnectRef/virConnectClose to instead use virObjectRef/virObjectUnref.
