I agree that fixing Bug 1610072 is more important than preventing
Bug 1172526 from showing up again, but it would be great if we could
make it so both are fixed...
How about parsing the info and then clearing out the address only if
it's a guestfwd channel? The existing virDomainDeviceInfoClear() is
a bit too thorough, but perhaps you can introduce a new
virDomainDeviceInfoClearAddress() that only zeroes out the address
and use that here.
