Eric Blake 43f85b995b conf: earlier allocation during backing chain crawl 
Right now, we are allocating virStorageFileMetadata near the bottom
of the callchain, only after we have identified that we are visiting
a file (and not a network resource).  I'm hoping to eventually
support parsing the backing chain from XML, where the backing chain
crawl then validates what was parsed rather than allocating a fresh
structure.  Likewise, I'm working towards a setup where we have a
backing element even for networks.  Both of these use cases are
easier to code if the allocation is hoisted earlier.

* src/util/virstoragefile.c (virStorageFileGetMetadataInternal)
(virStorageFileGetMetadataFromFDInternal): Change signature.
(virStorageFileGetMetadataFromBuf)
(virStorageFileGetMetadataRecurse, virStorageFileGetMetadata):
Update callers.

         LibVirt : simple API for virtualization

  Libvirt is a C toolkit to interact with the virtualization capabilities
of recent versions of Linux (and other OSes). It is free software
available under the GNU Lesser General Public License. Virtualization of
the Linux Operating System means the ability to run multiple instances of
Operating Systems concurrently on a single hardware system where the basic
resources are driven by a Linux instance. The library aim at providing
long term stable C API initially for the Xen paravirtualization but
should be able to integrate other virtualization mechanisms if needed.
