Not directly related to this patch since the same pattern is already
present in domain_event_cb, but this can race with gvir_connection_close,
ie gdom is looked up in domain_event_cb, gvir_connection_close frees
priv->domains and its content, domain_event_cb resumes and happily uses
gdom which it hasn't reffed and priv->domains. Something similar can also
happen between domain_event_cb and gvir_connection_fetch_domains.
