  Hum, you're not locking the driver itself during the loop ?
If a concurrent call were to remove one of the network object in
the meantime, that would lead to potentially random memory accesses
no ?

  like for domain, I would suggest the unlocking accessor to accept NULL
and drop all the if constructs

  If there is a good reason networkAutostartConfigs() doesn't need to
lock the top level driver lock, okay, otherwise +1 after fix,
