This is already initialized earlier on in the remoteOpen() method
so I don't think this chunk could have be the cause of the crashes.

    if (VIR_ALLOC(priv) < 0) {
        error (conn, VIR_ERR_NO_MEMORY, _("struct private_data"));
        return VIR_DRV_OPEN_ERROR;
    }

    if (virMutexInit(&priv->lock) < 0) {
        error(conn, VIR_ERR_INTERNAL_ERROR,
              _("cannot initialize mutex"));
        VIR_FREE(priv);
        return VIR_DRV_OPEN_ERROR;
    }
    remoteDriverLock(priv);
    priv->localUses = 1;
    priv->watch = -1;



The remoteNetworkOpen, remoteStorageOpen and remoteDevMonOpen methods 
have scenarios where we'd miss the initialization, and thus need a patch.
But since you have adapted the Xen driver to always go via libvirtd, you 
shouldn't hit those scenarios either.
