[libvirt] [PATCH v3 00/15] Drop network driver lock

Well, this is interesting. I've turned the virNetworkObjList into using a virHash. And even though the performance in my testing (using the very same test program as in previous versions of the patch set) increased. Without these patches, the test program took 56s to finish. With these patches (that is with virHash table) it takes 46s, which is better. But previously, with network objects stored in flat array I was able to get somewhere around 23s! I wonder what may be the cause. NB, nearly all patches in the series have been ACKed already, but since I'm switching the virNetworkObjList internals, I'm posting them again.
