Pre-patch, passing &status to virCommandRun had the effect of avoiding a
log message if the command ran with non-zero status. But now that we
are requiring the file to exist, and in particular, since we are already
using NULL later on...

...here, would it make sense to use virCommandRun(cmd, NULL) instead of
checking status ourselves? If the intent is still to avoid a logged
message when the status is non-zero, a comment in the code might be
useful (for example, see how virStorageBackendQEMUImgBackingFormat in
storage_backend.c has a comment).
ACK with either the code simplification or the added comment.
