[libvirt] [PATCH] util: Fix deadlock in virLogReset

When libvirtd forks off a new child, the child then calls virLogReset(),
which ends up closing file descriptors used as log outputs. However, we
recently started logging closed file descriptors, which means we need to
lock logging mutex which was already logged by virLogReset(). We don't
really want to log anything when we are in the process of closing log
outputs.
