[libvirt] [PATCH v2 3/3] virLXCControllerSetupResourceLimits: Call virNuma*() iff needed

Like we are doing in qemu driver
($COMMIT_HASH_TO_BE_FILLED_DURING_PUSHING), lets call
virNumaSetupMemoryPolicy() only if really needed. Problem is, if
we numa_set_membind() child, there's no way to change it from the
daemon afterwards. So any later attempts to change the pinning
will fail. But in very weird way - CGroups will be set, but due
to membind child will not allocate memory from any other node.
