Console devices have their pty devices assigned when the qemu is actually
started. The libvirt spends considerable amount of time to start the qemu if
the guest has multiple passthrough devices. If time is spent during the
hostdev preparation, someone attempts to open the console, the libvirt
crashes in virChrdevLockFilePath().The patch attempts to fix the crash by
adding a check before attempting to open.
