When starting a guest and copying host vendor cpuid to the guest
cpu, libvirtd would crash if the host cpu contained a NULL vendor
field. Avoid the crash by checking for a valid vendor in the host
cpu before copying the cpuid to the guest cpu.
For completeness, here is a backtrace from the crash
(gdb) bt

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.
