From: Julio Faracco <jcfaracco(a)gmail.com&gt; Function qemuMigrationEatCookie() calls qemuMigrationCookieXMLParseStr(), when qemuCaps is not set, function assumes priv as a NULL pointer. At the end, function tries to set job info operation to the same current job. But, if priv is NULL due to missing qemuCaps, code returns a Null Pointer Exception. This commit adds an extra check to verify it.
