I think you can make this function return enum
libxl_gfx_passthrough_kind and then return
LIBXL_GFX_PASSTHRU_KIND_DEFAULT in this case.

Please declare this in the smallest necessary scope...

i.e. here.

With the suggestion to return KIND_DEFAULT if detection fails then I
think an extra case should be added:
        case LIBXL_GFX_PASSTHRU_KIND_DEFAULT:
                LOG(ERROR, "unable to detect required
                gfx_passthru_kind");
                return NULL;

> +                LOG(ERROR, "unknown gfx_passthru_kind\n");

I think LOG is supposed to not include the final \n.
