When using spice you also need the spicevmc channel and the spice agent
being installed and active in the guest.

Not that easily due to the goto being hidden in the pwrite_field()
macro.

It's not.  Again, the goto is in pread_field.

But I just noticed I missed one fprintf which should be a
trace_vfio_display_edid_write_error() ...
