The commit message could use some cleaning up. Firstly, there's no need
to prepend every line with a TAB (btw remember to put 'set expandtab'
into your .vimrc). Secondly, the is no 'Signed-off-By' line which
prevents the patch from being merged. Thirdly, the lines are too long
and should be cut.

The patch looks okay though.

[libvirt] [PATCH] completer: Doesn't alloc enough space for null terminated array of strings

[Simon Kobyda]

Functions virshSecretEventNameCompleter, virshPoolEventNameCompleter, 
virshNodedevEventNameCompleter allocates only enough space for array of N 
strings.
However these are null terminated strings, so program needs to alloc 
space for array of N+1 strings.
How to replicate error: valgrind virsh, use completer for 
'-nodedev-event --event' or '-pool-event --event' or '-secret-event --event'.
