Subject: [PATCH] qemudDomainSetVcpus: avoid NULL-deref

* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c (qemudDomainSetVcpus): Avoid NULL-deref
upon unknown UUID.  Call qemuDomainObjBeginJob(vm) only after
ensuring that vm != NULL, not before.  This potential NULL-deref
was introduced by commit 2c555d87b0041e0d1ec4742386d2161d1b2f0600.
