Or change to loop to while (1) and add a break before the sleep if
jobInfo->type is not VIR_DOMAIN_JOB_UNBOUNDED.

Personally, I don't mind either way. The ultimate solution is to avoid
any sleeps by waiting for an event. However, Juan did not implement the
even in QEMU yet. Once he does that, I will make patches for libvirt
that will use that instead of polling every 50ms.
