[libvirt] [PATCH 2/3] qemuDomainAttachDeviceMknodHelper: unlink() not so often
Not that I'd encounter any bug here, but the code doesn't look
100% correct. Imagine, somebody is trying to attach a device to a
domain, and the device's /dev entry already exists in the qemu
namespace. This is handled gracefully and the control continues
with setting up ACLs and calling security manager to set up
labels. Now, if any of these steps fail, control jump on the
'cleanup' label and unlink() the file straight away. Even when it
was not us who created the file in the first place. This can be
possibly dangerous.
