[libvirt] [PATCH 0/4] Remove need for STATIC_ANALYSIS in viralloc.h

[John Ferlan]

Not sure which release exactly, but the coverity analysis bug I filed that
was the reason for commit id 'c9a85af31' has been fixed, so it's time to
remove that... In doing so uncovered another issue - it seems the fix for
Coverity addressed the primary problem we've seen, but when there's functions
returning allocated strings by reference that can also VIR_FREE(*string),
whatever was added to address the main issue doesn't seem to recognize this
other usage, resulinting in a false positive resource_leak. Luckily there's
only two instances in our code for that. One is addressed by patch 3 and
the other in virPCIDeviceGetDriverPathAndName which would require quite
a few more changes to address (essentially split up the function - it'll
be on my "to do" list).

Patch 1:
Addresses an issue seen once patches 2-4 were applied - that there's a
real problem with the error path.  It's a simple fix.

Patches 2 & 3:
Address a false positive resource leak even with patch 4 applied.

Patch 4:
Remove the rather ugly !STATIC_ANALYSIS within the VIR_FREE and VIR_DISPOSE*
macros. As I found with a build after the fact, VIR_DISPOSE_STRING was missing
an argument anyway (it should have been ": 0, 1, NULL" instead of ": 1, NULL").

NB: Patch 4 has been run through the private coverity server...

  util: Fix error path for virPCIGetVirtualFunctions
  util: Remove need for ret in virPCIGetPhysicalFunction
  util: Adjust return for virPCIGetDeviceAddressFromSysfsLink
  util: Remove need for STATIC_ANALYSIS check
