If the caller ignores errors, ...

... we report this error to stderr (but not any of the other ones).
This is weird.  I figure you do it here to reproduce the weirdness of
qemu_open() before the patch.  Goes back to

    commit a5813077aac7865f69b7ee46a594f3705429f7cd

        osdep: warn if open(O_DIRECT) on fails with EINVAL

        Print a warning when opening a file O_DIRECT fails with EINVAL.  This
        saves users a lot of time trying to figure out the EINVAL error, which
        is typical when attempting to open a file O_DIRECT on Linux tmpfs.

The message isn't phrased as a warning, though.  Should it use
warn_report()?  Stefan?

Regardless, since use of error_report() in a function that returns
errors through its Error ** parameter is an anti-pattern, this use needs
a comment.  I'd make it a TODO comment: convert all callers where the
warning is wanted to qemu_open_err(), then drop it.

I'd rename this to qemu_open_with_bad_error_messages().

For better ones, callers can use

    if (qemu_open_err(name, flags, &err) < 0) {
        error_report_err(err);
        ...
    }

or, where the error is fatal
    
    qemu_open_err(name, flags, &error_fatal);

If you prefer not to rename it now, please add a comment why it should
not be used in new code, and existing uses should be converted.

If you rename, call the new one qemu_open().
