[libvirt] [PATCH] qemudDomainAttachSCSIDisk: handle empty controller list

[Jim Meyering]

Clang found something that might be a real bug.
I suspect that ...drive.controller will always be at least one,
but we should not have to dive into the code trying to figure
that out.  It's easier/better here just to handle the potential trouble:

clang saw that if it *was* zero, then the following "for" loop
would not be entered, and "cont" would not be initialized.
On the very next statement "cont" (uninitialized) would be dereferenced.

Subject: [PATCH] qemudDomainAttachSCSIDisk: handle empty controller list

* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c (qemudDomainAttachSCSIDisk): Handle
the (theoretical) case of an empty controller list, so that
clang does not think the subsequent dereference of "cont"
would dereference an undefined variable (due to preceding
loop not iterating even once).
