Re: [libvirt] [PATCH] storage: Fix any VolLookupByPath if we have an empty logical pool

On F16 at least, empty volume groups don't have a directory under /dev. The directory only appears once a logical volume is created. This tickles some behavior in BackendStablePath which ends with libvirt sleeping for 5 seconds while waiting for the directory to appear. This causes all sorts of problems for the virStorageVolLookupByPath API which virtinst uses, even if trying to resolve a path that is independent of the logical pool. In reality we don't even need to do that checking since logical pools always have a stable target path. Short circuit the polling in that case.
