From: Alex Jia <ajia at redhat.com>

* conf/domain_conf.c: allocate memory to def->redirdevs in 
  virDomainDefParseXML such as VIR_ALLOC_N(def->redirdevs, n),
  however, virDomainDefFree(def) hasn't released these memory.

* Detected in valgrind run:

==19820== 209 (16 direct, 193 indirect) bytes in 1 blocks are definitely lost in loss record 25 of 26
==19820==    at 0x4A04A28: calloc (vg_replace_malloc.c:467)

==19820==    by 0x3CA7A1ECDC: (below main) (in /lib64/libc-2.12.so)
==19820==
==19820== LEAK SUMMARY:
==19820==    definitely lost: 16 bytes in 1 blocks
==19820==    indirectly lost: 193 bytes in 5 blocks
==19820==      possibly lost: 0 bytes in 0 blocks
==19820==    still reachable: 1,054 bytes in 21 blocks

* How to reproduce?
% valgrind -v --leak-check=full ./tests/qemuxml2xmltest
