The port allocation APIs are currently called unconditionally for all
types of NIC, but (mostly) only do anything for NICs with type=network.
The exception is the port allocate API which does some validation even
for NICs with type!=network. Relying on this validation is flawed,
however, since the network driver may not even be installed. IOW virt
drivers must not delegate validation to the network driver for NICs
with type != network.
This change allows us to report errors when the virtual network driver
is not registered.
