dhcpHostFree() and addnHostFree() don't follow the normal pattern of *Free functions in the rest of libvirt code - they are actually more similar to the *Dispose() functions, in that they free all subordinate objects, but not the object pointed to by the argument itself. However, the arguments aren't virObjects, so it wouldn't be proper to name them *Dispose() either. They *currently* behave similar to a *Clear() function, in that they free all the subordinate objects and nullify the pointers of those objects. HOWEVER, we don't actually need or want that behavior - the two functions in question are only called as part of a higher level *Free() function, and the pointers are not referenced in any way between the time they are freed and when the parent object is freed. So, since the current name isn't correct, nor is *Dispose(), and we want to change the behavior in such a way that *Clear() also wouldn't be correct, lets name the functions *FreeContent(), which is an accurate description of what the functions do, and what we *want* them to do. And since it's such a small patch, we can go ahead and change that behavior - replacing the VIR_FREEs with g_free.

Libvirt API for virtualization
Libvirt provides a portable, long term stable C API for managing the virtualization technologies provided by many operating systems. It includes support for QEMU, KVM, Xen, LXC, bhyve, Virtuozzo, VMware vCenter and ESX, VMware Desktop, Hyper-V, VirtualBox and the POWER Hypervisor.
For some of these hypervisors, it provides a stateful management daemon which runs on the virtualization host allowing access to the API both by non-privileged local users and remote users.
Layered packages provide bindings of the libvirt C API into other languages including Python, Perl, PHP, Go, Java, OCaml, as well as mappings into object systems such as GObject, CIM and SNMP.
