[Users] Adding a VMNIC via the REST api returns no error, but the NIC isn't added

[Satya Vempati]

Thanks for the reply. Should have noted it earlier, I am using
3.3.0-0.38.rc.el6ev.

I am chiefly concerned that no error is thrown when a nic isn¹t added, so
when I am doing this programmatically I wouldn¹t be able to discover that
the operation failed.
