Ryota Ozaki 87176d0ce9 nodedev_hal: fix segfault when virDBusGetSystemBus fails
Thie patch fixes the segfault:
    error : nodeStateInitialize:658 : DBus not available,
      disabling HAL driver: internal error: Unable to get DBus
      system bus connection: Failed to connect to socket
      /var/run/dbus/system_bus_socket: No such file or directory
    error : nodeStateInitialize:719 :  ?:
    Caught Segmentation violation dumping internal log buffer:

This segfault occurs at the below VIR_ERROR:
  failure:
      if (dbus_error_is_set(&err)) {
          VIR_ERROR(_("%s: %s"), err.name, err.message);

When virDBusGetSystemBus fails, the code jumps to the above failure
path. However, the err variable is not correctly initialized
before calling virDBusGetSystemBus. As a result, dbus_error_is_set
may pass over the uninitialized err variable whose name or
message may point to somewhere unknown memory region, which
causes a segfault on VIR_ERROR.

The new code initializes the err variable before calling
virDBusGetSystemBus.
