> The current way of assigning names to the host network backend and
> NIC device in QEMU was over complicated, by varying naming scheme
> based on the NIC model and backend type. This simplifies the naming
> to simply be 'net0' and 'hostnet0', allowing code to easily determine
> the host network name and vlan based off the primary device alias
> name 'net0'. This in turn allows removal of alot of QEMU specific
> code from the XML parser, and makes it easier to assign new unique
> names for NICs that are hotplugged
>
> * src/conf/domain_conf.c, src/conf/domain_conf.h: Remove hostnet_name
>  and vlan fields from virNetworkDefPtr
> * src/qemu/qemu_conf.c, src/qemu/qemu_conf.h, src/qemu/qemu_driver.c:
>  Use a single network alias naming scheme regardless of NIC type
>  or backend type. Determine VLANs from the alias name.
> * tests/qemuxml2argvdata/qemuxml2argv-net-eth-names.args,
>  tests/qemuxml2argvdata/qemuxml2argv-net-virtio-device.args,
>  tests/qemuxml2argvdata/qemuxml2argv-net-virtio-netdev.args: Update
>  for new simpler naming scheme

ACK
