yeah - forgot to go back and remove that line.

Correct - issue #1 (of 4)

OK - I'll separate these into separate patches... These are coverity
issues 2, 3, & 4.  There's a followup to the Extend NIC_RX_* series that
I made just before this that pointed out that there's a path where
calling virNetDevMcastListClear in this context if we jumped here after
failing the virFileReadAll, then there'd be a NULL deref on
mcast->entries. When I looked at the code - the calling function to this
will make the same Clear call on failure.

The final 2 Coverity issues were resource leaks on buf, but Coverity
also says "cur" is leaked resulting in a twofer.

Even though you've ACK'd, I'll split things up and repost anyway for
clarity.
