This hunk was introduced in [1] in order to avoid loosing events from monitor on stopping qemu process. But as explained in [2] on destroy we won't get neither EOF nor any other events as monitor is just closed. In case of crash/shutdown we won't get any more events as well and qemuDomainObjStopWorker will be called by qemuProcessStop eventually. Thus let's remove qemuDomainObjStopWorker from qemuProcessHandleMonitorEOF as it is not useful anymore.
