From: Markus Armbruster <arm...@redhat.com>
Type "hubport" is valid only with -netdev. Unfortunately, that's
detected late and the error message doesn't explain why:
$ qemu-system-i386 -net hubport,id=foo,hubid=0
qemu-system-i386: -net hubport,id=foo,hubid=0: Device 'hubport' could not
be initialized
Improve the error message to "Parameter 'type' expects a net type".
Not fixed: -net hubport without the parameters required by -netdev
hubport still asks for those parameters:
$ qemu-system-i386 -net hubport
qemu-system-i386: -net hubport: Parameter 'hubid' is missing
