[PATCH] qemu: fix libvirtd crash in migration after vm shutdown




If we shutdown a guest, then migrate it without the arg XML, libvirtd will get 
crashed.



The reason is that:

1 during shutdown callback, qemuProcessStop() , it points vm->def  to vm->newDef

2 during migration, it frees persistentDef, which points to vm->newDef when the 
arg XML is NULL.

   However, because vm->newDef is now vm->def, what we IN FACT freed is vm->def.

3 it will refer to vm->def after step2, thus invalid read/write causes libvirtd 
crash



We needn't to free persistentDef if persist_xml is NULL, because no extra def 
was alloced if persistent_xml is NULL.
