Re: [libvirt] [PATCH 09/13] Remove direct storage of hostnet_name & vlan

The current way of assigning names to the host network backend and
NIC device in QEMU was over complicated, by varying naming scheme
based on the NIC model and backend type. This simplifies the naming
to simply be 'net0' and 'hostnet0', allowing code to easily determine
the host network name and vlan based off the primary device alias
name 'net0'. This in turn allows removal of alot of QEMU specific
code from the XML parser, and makes it easier to assign new unique
names for NICs that are hotplugged
ACK, this really simplifies the code, but isn't there a small risk of
not being able to properly handle domains say after a libvirt upgrade
and restart ?
