[libvirt] [PATCH 6/6] domain_conf: Avoid false positive

Gcc fails to see that virDomainChrGetDomainPtrsInternal always
sets pointers to a non NULL value (except for
chr device type VIR_DOMAIN_CHR_DEVICE_TYPE_LAST which if occurs,
we are in way bigger problem than NULL deref).

conf/domain_conf.c: In function 'virDomainChrPreAlloc':
