Fixed upstream with two commits:

commit 2751ab289bad78ff3da59d164859598ef52d7802

    virsh: Fix error resetting on fallback paths
    
    On some fallback paths in virsh, error reported by the previously failed
    API is cleared by virResetLastError() that doesn't free error stored by
    virsh. This patch changes this to clear it using vshResetLibvirtError().
