error: Eliminate error_propagate() with Coccinelle, part 2

When all we do with an Error we receive into a local variable is
propagating to somewhere else, we can just as well receive it there
right away.  The previous commit did that with a Coccinelle script I
consider fairly trustworthy.  This commit uses the same script with
the matching of return taken out, i.e. we convert

    if (!foo(..., &err)) {
        ...
        error_propagate(errp, err);
        ...
    }

to

    if (!foo(..., errp)) {
        ...
        ...
    }

This is unsound: @err could still be read between afterwards.  I don't
know how to express "no read of @err without an intervening write" in
Coccinelle.  Instead, I manually double-checked for uses of @err.

Suboptimal line breaks tweaked manually.  qdev_realize() simplified
further to placate scripts/checkpatch.pl.
