PostParse is automatically called by DomainDefParse (I said DomainDefFormat in
a previously mail, that's incorrect), so we don't need to call it explicitly.
The qemu specific controller additions are triggered via that.

The generic domain_conf AddImplicitControllers though isn't tested here, but I
have previously posted patches that move that call into the generic PostParse
function, so it will be tested after that. I'll be reposting those as part of
another series after this is merged.

The other series also puts AssignAddresses into qemu's PostParse callback, so
the immediate need for this patch will be gone. But there are other bits like
AssignAliases we should be testing here as well

Thanks, pushed now
