Historically, the first <console> element is treated as the
alias of a <serial> device. In the virDomainDeviceInfoIterate,
This situation is not considered. It still handles the first <console>
element as another devices, which means that for console[0] with
serial targetType, it calls callback function another time.
It will cause the problem of address conflicts when assigning
spapr-vio address for serial device on pSeries guest.
For pSeries guest, the serial configuration in the xml file
is as the following:
<serial type='pty'>
<target port='0'/>
<address type='spapr-vio'/>
</serial>
Console configuration is default, the dumped xml file is as the following:
<serial type='pty'>
<source path='/dev/pts/5'/>
<target port='0'/>
<alias name='serial0'/>
<address type='spapr-vio' reg='0x30000000'/>
</serial>
<console type='pty' tty='/dev/pts/5'>
<source path='/dev/pts/5'/>
<target type='serial' port='0'/>
<alias name='serial0'/>
<address type='spapr-vio' reg='0x30000000'/>
</console>
It shows that the <console> device is the alias of serial device.
So its address is the same as the serial device. When detecting
the conflicts in the qemuAssignSpaprVIOAddress the first console
and the serial device conflicts because virDomainDeviceInfoIterate()
still handle these as two different devices, and in the qemuAssignSpaprVIOAddress(),
it will compare these two devices' addressed. If they have same address,
it will report address conflict error.
So this patch is to handle the first console which targetType is serial
as the alias of serial device to avoid address conflicts error reported.

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.
