Recent versions of Xen disable the virtual HPET by default. This is
usually more precise because tick policies are not implemented for
the HPET in Xen. However, there may be several reasons to control
the HPET manually: 1) to test the emulation; 2) because distros may
provide the knob while leaving the default to "enabled" for compatibility
reasons.
This patch provides support for the hpet item in both sexpr and xm
formats, and translates it to a <timer> element.

We already have virAsprintf, so picking a similar name helps for
seeing a similar purpose. Furthermore, the prefix V before printf
generally implies 'va_list', even though this variant was '...', and
the old name got in the way of adding a new va_list version.
global rename performed with:
$ git grep -l virBufferVSprintf \
| xargs -L1 sed -i 's/virBufferVSprintf/virBufferAsprintf/g'
then revert the changes in ChangeLog-old.
Found by 'make -C tests valgrind'.
xen_xm.c: Dummy allocation via virDomainChrDefNew is directly
overwritten and lost. Free 'script' in success path too.
vmx.c: Free virtualDev_string in success path too.
domain_conf.c: Free compression in success path too.

this is the patch to add support for multiple serial ports to the
libvirt Xen driver. It support both old style (serial = "pty") and
new style (serial = [ "/dev/ttyS0", "/dev/ttyS1" ]) definition and
tests for xml2sexpr, sexpr2xml and xmconfig have been added as well.
Written and tested on RHEL-5 Xen dom0 and working as designed but
the Xen version have to have patch for RHBZ #614004 but this patch
is for upstream version of libvirt.
Also, this patch is addressing issue described in RHBZ #670789.
