[libvirt] [PATCH 1/2] qemu: Fix possible infinite loop and segfault on error path.

virDomainVcpuPinDefCopy when the control flow reaches out of memory
cleanup code, the flow would end in a infinite loop as the loop variable
wasn't decremented.

Also a dereference of NULL pointers was possible if allocation of the
Vcpu pinning definiton structure failed.
