[libvirt] [PATCH] util: warn when passing a non-pointer to VIR_FREE
There were recently some bugs where VIR_FREE was called with an
int parameter. Try to affect the value passed to VIR_FREE to
a const void* so that the compiler gets a chance to emit a warning
if we didn't pass a pointer to VIR_FREE.
