This reverts commit 46d4d36d0bf2b24b205f2f604f0905db80264eef.
The reverted commit changed to emit warnings instead of errors when
vhost is requested but vhost initialization fails if vhostforce option
is not set.
However, vhostforce is not meant to ignore vhost errors. It was once
introduced as an option to commit 5430a28fe4 ("vhost: force vhost off
for non-MSI guests") to force enabling vhost for non-MSI guests, which
will have worse performance with vhost. The option was deprecated with
commit 1e7398a140 ("vhost: enable vhost without without MSI-X") and
changed to behave identical with the vhost option for compatibility.
Worse, commit bf769f742c ("virtio: del net client if net_init_tap_one
failed") changed to delete the client when vhost fails even when the
failure only results in a warning. The leads to an assertion failure
for the -netdev command line option.
The reverted commit was intended to avoid that the vhost initialization
failure won't result in a corrupted netdev. This problem should have
been fixed by deleting netdev when the initialization fails instead of
ignoring the failure with an arbitrary option. Fortunately, commit
bf769f742c ("virtio: del net client if net_init_tap_one failed"),
mentioned earlier, implements this behavior.
Restore the correct semantics and fix the assertion failure for the
-netdev command line option by reverting the problematic commit.

If netdev_add tap,id=net0,...,vhost=on failed in net_init_tap_one(),
the followed up device_add virtio-net-pci,netdev=net0 will fail
too, prints:
TUNSETOFFLOAD ioctl() failed: Bad file descriptor TUNSETOFFLOAD
ioctl() failed: Bad file descriptor
The reason is that the fd of tap is closed when error occured after
calling net_init_tap_one().
The fd should be closed when calling net_init_tap_one failed:
- if tap_set_sndbuf() failed
- if tap_set_sndbuf() succeeded but vhost failed to open or
initialize with vhostforce flag on
- with wrong vhost command line parameter
The fd should not be closed just because vhost failed to open or
initialize but without vhostforce flag. So the followed up
device_add can fall back to userspace virtio successfully.
