The Error ** argument must be NULL, &error_abort, &error_fatal, or a
pointer to a variable containing NULL.  Passing an argument of the
latter kind twice without clearing it in between is wrong: if the
first call sets an error, it no longer points to NULL for the second
call.

xen_bus_realize() is wrong that way: it passes &local_err to
xs_node_watch() in a loop.  If this fails in more than one iteration,
it can trip error_setv()'s assertion.

Fix by clearing @local_err.
