[libvirt] [PATCH 1/2] daemon: Fix segfault by reloading daemon right after start

[Pavel Hrdina]

Libvirt could crash with segfault if user issue "service reload" right
after "service start". One possible way to crash libvirt is to run reload
during initialization of QEMU driver.

It could happen when qemu driver will initialize qemu_driver_lock but
don't have a time to set it's "config" and the SIGHUP arrives. The
reload handler tries to get qemu_drv->config during "virStorageAutostart"
and dereference it which ends with segfault.

Let's ignore all reload requests until all drivers are initialized.
