Re: [libvirt] [PATCH v4 1/4] nwfilter: Remove unnecessary UUID comparison bypass

Commit id '46a811db07' added code to check if the filter by
Name
already existed with a different UUID, to go along with the existing
found filter by UUID and compare the Names match thus making it
impossible to reach this find by Name condition without both the
Name and UUID already matching, so remove the need to "filter"
out the UUID for the virNWFilterDefEqual.
I can't be certain, but it looks to me like the original nwfilter author
intended to allow changing the uuid of an existing nwfilter, and put in
all the code checking for "matches everything except uuid" specifically
to make that work correctly, but a bug report
(https://bugzilla.redhat.com/1077009) convinced someone else to prohibit
that, thus rendering all the stuff you've removed (and I think a bit
more) irrelevant. What it's been reduced to now is "if the new
definition is *exactly* identical to the old definition, then replace
the old with the new but don't rebuild client filters", which seems
mostly pointless, but also harmless (it's just replacing the original
with a new copy that is exactly identical).
