[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v2 4/4] vl: Simplify machine_parse()

[Wei Yang]

From: Markus Armbruster <address@hidden>

Exploit that argument @name is nerver null.  Check is_help_option()
first, because that's what we do elsewhere.  If we (foolishly!)
defined a machine named "help", -machine help would now print help
instead of selecting the machine named "help".
