[libvirt] [PATCHv2] qemu_hotplug: Don't free the PCI device structure after hot-unplug

The pciDevice structure corresponding to the device being hot-unplugged
was freed after it was "stolen" from activeList. The pointer was still
used for eg-inactive list. This patch removes the free of the structure
and frees it only if reset fails on the device.

I've added a check for activePci to be non-null. This should not happen
now that the activePciHostdevs list does not get corrupted, but if the lookup for
some strange reason fails, don't enter pciResetDevice with NULL activePci that would
cause a segfault.
