Actually this patch introduces a memory leak in case we restore the
@backup definition.
virSecretObjListAdd() adds the @def into @obj and sets the old def
into @backup, so far good.
VIR_STEAL_PTR(objdef, def) leaves the @def == NULL, still good
But if we in any point jump to "restore_backup" after the VIR_STEAL_PTR
and the @backup != NULL we simply changes the @obj->def back to @backup
and the new def is only in @objdef which is not freed anywhere.
Possible fix is to set @def = NULL after the virSecretObjListRemove()
in restore_backup:
...
} else {
virSecretObjListRemove(driver->secrets, obj);
virObjectUnref(obj);
obj = NULL;
def = NULL;
}
...
and there is no need to have yet another @objdef.
