[libvirt] [PATCH 0/3] Fix regression with vhostuser and chardev FD passing

QEMU has a validation bug which prevents vhostuser accepting the chardev
when it uses FD passing, despite it being functionally correct.

While the QEMU bug is being fixed, we need to avoid hitting this
problem with existing QEMU releases.

The easiest way todo this is to simply disable FD passing for the
chardev used with vhostuser only.

Daniel P. Berrangé (3):
  qemu: remove chardevStdioLogd param from vhostuser code path
  qemu: consolidate parameters of qemuBuildChrChardevStr into flags
  qemu: don't use chardev FD passing for vhostuser backend
