[libvirt] [PATCH] qemu: Fix system pages handling in <memoryBacking/>

In one of my previous commits (311b4a67) I've tried to allow to pass
regular system pages to <hugepages>. However, there was a little bug
that wasn't caught. If domain has guest NUMA topology defined,
qemuBuildNumaArgStr() function takes care of generating corresponding
command line. The hugepages backing for guest NUMA nodes is handled
there too. And here comes the bug: the hugepages setting from XML is
stored in KiB internally, however, the system pages size was queried
and stored in Bytes. So the check whether these two equal was failing
even if it shouldn't.
