Oh right - it wasn't the first one of those too /-|... Just realized vz
wasn't building on my host...

Actually, I'd prefer to follow what I've done elsewhere which is add the
virObjectLock(dom); prior to the EndAPI call. Since we don't fail on our
virObjectUnlock calls the fact that it wasn't locked before unlocking
doesn't really register; however, upcoming changes to how *ListRemove
works will do the "right" and "expected" thing, so having all the
current consumers be consistent is preferred.

Oh and by right and expected I mean since it receives a locked and
reffed object, it should return a locked and reffed object to let the
caller decide how to dispose.

The long winded explanation just in case you've missed it in other
related series...

In the long run virDomainObjEndAPI is just a name chosen long ago - it
ends up being the complementary call for the *FindBy* and *ListAdd
calls. In the long run the *EndAPI just Unlocks and Unrefs the object.

The *FindBy* calls were "inconsistent" w/r/t *Name always returned
locked/reffed objects, while FindBy{UUID|ID} returned unreffed, but
locked while the FindBy{UUID|ID}Ref would return the reffed/locked
object. Having to "require" callers to know whether to use *EndAPI or
ObjectUnlock makes things 'inconsistent' and has led to bugs. The
*FindByName has been misused in a few places where only the Unlock was
done meaning that object was probably never reaped.

The *Add function returns a locked and 2X ref object. Some drivers add
the additional ref (like done in prlsdkLoadDomain for @dom) and other
drivers don't - it's been a process to make things consistent. For those
that didn't take the additional ref, only virObjectLock was called after
the *Add call. For those that did the *EndAPI was called. Thus leaving
the object w/ 2 references (as it should have) once the Add is
successful and for each FindBy call not altering that. The *Add code
should return w/ 3 refs - one for each hash table add and one for
existence. When the caller is "done" with it (*EndAPI), then the 2 refs
remain because of the hash tables. Callers shouldn't have to know all
this, but they do because they've found that Unref's at the wrong time
lead to disappearing objects. All drivers handle it now, but in
different ways. I'm trying to add a bit of consistency.

This is all important because the *ListRemove code will remove 2
references when calling the virHashRemoveEntry for each hash table the
object is in. Upon entry, ListRemove actually expects 3X ref and locked
object. So removing the 2 refs is fine and the rest "fire dance" can
really be avoidable.

The problem is that it takes making the *FindBy* and *Add* callers to be
consistent before cleaning up the ListRemove

Thanks for the review -

John

BTW: It's not clear to me why getDomainJobResultHelper Unlocks and Locks
@dom; however, I would think that could be dangerous if something else
comes in and is able to lock/change @dom in the mean time. Seems to only
matter for the prlsdkUpdateDomain though. Still if that code does what
appears to be some sort of job wait and the code I'm unclear about is
looking for job results, perhaps not an issue - just wasn't sure and
figured I'd note/mention it.
