Daniel P. Berrange 460e481647 Skip bulk relabelling of resources in SELinux driver when used with LXC 
The virSecurityManager{Set,Restore}AllLabel methods are invoked
at domain startup/shutdown to relabel resources associated with
a domain. This works fine with QEMU, but with LXC they are in
fact both currently no-ops since LXC does not support disks,
hostdevs, or kernel/initrd files. Worse, when LXC gains support
for disks/hostdevs, they will do the wrong thing, since they
run in host context, not container context. Thus this patch
turns then into a formal no-op when used with LXC. The LXC
controller will call out to specific security manager labelling
APIs as required during startup.

         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.
