We don't clean up network if fails to parse "-device" parameters without calling net_cleanup(). I touch a problem, the tap device which is created by qemu-ifup script could not be removed by qemu-ifdown script. Some similar problems also exist in vl.c
In this patch, if network initialization successes, a cleanup function will be registered to be called at qemu process termination.
