This no longer git am -3 applies and based on previous patch reviews, I
think perhaps this needs to be redone.

I don't believe moving/renaming virDomainObjWait is good/right, but I'm
sure there would be other opinions on that.  Yes, QEMU is currently the
only consumer... If it were to move, it should move to virdomainobjlist
since that's where innards of virDomainObjPtr are managed. The fact that
we look at ->parent.lock, well, <sigh>...

Anyway, you're attempting to special case something and perhaps you just
need to create a qemuDomainObjWait that would call the timeout version
of the virDomainObjWait and be able to handle whether some other error
occurred.  Wouldn't the LastError before the current wait return NULL
(as in no error), then during the timeout period if LastError is
something couldn't that indicate the failure you're looking for.

I didn't spend a lot of time thinking about alternatives and how the
code should change, but when you mention the patch has a drawback - that
immediately raises concern.
