Patches with QERR_ are still accepted where it makes sense and user interface
expects particular error type/message. In this particular context
QERR_INVALID_PARAMETER_TYPE is appropriate since user interface expects
this particular error in this context.

Luiz wasn't objecting to this specific error case in past:
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2013-01/msg00738.html

if one greps for QERR_INVALID_PARAMETER_TYPE, visitors are using it extensively
and even qom/object.c uses it.
