Compiler isn't able to see that 'virDevMapperGetTargets' in cases e.g. when the devmapper isn't available may not initialize the value in the pointer passed as the second argument. The usage 'qemuDomainSetupDisk' lead to an accidental infinite loop as previous calls apparently doctored the stack to a point where 'g_slist_concat' would end up in an infinite loop trying to find the end of the list.
