Keep this comment, it explains why this function does not abide the
passed in uid argument. With that:

Reviewed-by: Cole Robinson <crobinso at redhat.com>

After this, virFileSkipRoot and virFileIsAbsPath are no longer used, and
after that I think VIR_FILE_IS_DIR_SEPARATOR, maybe check for others.
Should be a follow up patch though
