The check is bogus as it ends up finding itself and falling over.

Don't you simply need to invert the check? You should get NULL back if
there is another device already...

Yes that's correct - the existing check is simply missing a ! at the front. For an existing example take a look at the the fw_cfg device:

https://gitlab.com/qemu-project/qemu/-/blob/master/hw/nvram/fw_cfg.c#L1228
https://gitlab.com/qemu-project/qemu/-/blob/master/hw/nvram/fw_cfg.c#L1125

Unfortunately it seems that I also missed this when I added my R-B tag :(


ATB,
