[libvirt] [PATCH] qemu: Do not free the device from activePciHostdevs if it's in use

* src/qemu/qemu_hostdev.c (qemuDomainReAttachHostdevDevices):
pciDeviceListFree(pcidevs) at the end free()s the device even if
it's in use by other domain, this is complete wrong, and will
cause race. E.g.

# sh test1.sh
Device pci_0000_00_19_0 dettached

Domain test started

Device attached successfully

error: Failed to start domain test2
error: Requested operation is not valid: PCI device 0000:00:19.0 is in use by domain test

The patch also fixes another problem alongside, there won't
be error like "qemuDomainReAttachHostdevDevices: Not reattaching active
device 0000:00:19.0" in daemon log if some device is in active.
As pciResetDevice and pciReattachDevice won't be called for
the device anymore. This is sensiable as we already reported
error when preparing the device if it's active. Blindly trying
to pciResetDevice & pciReattachDevice on the device and getting
an error is just redundant.
