Reviewing the code I found that return value of function udev_device_get_sysattr_value() is dereferenced without a check. udev_device_get_sysattr_value() may return NULL by number of reasons. v2: VIR_DEBUG added, replaced STREQ(NULLSTR()) with STREQ_NULLABLE() v3: More checks added, to skip earlier. More verbose VIR_DEBUG.
