I've had to scale that back a bit due to comments related to the object, but this code was already was all being done in parallel - so that's why it's like that. I could drop this one, although having @def consumed by vir*ObjNew() is something that I have been doing throughout the various changes. So far, virInterfaceObjNew already has this, but patches for nwfilter and nodedev also follow the same pattern. I'm 50/50 right now on it and can drop it if you'd prefer. Yes, the drawback is "obvious" that on failure, clearing obj->def needs to be done to avoid the potential double free problem.
