[PATCH] qemu: avoid pass null pointer as an argument

[ajia@xxxxxxxxxx]

In fact, 'pos' is always -1, this reason is because qemuProcessStart function
assigns -1 to 'pos' variable then call qemuProcessWaitForMonitor, meanwhile,
qemuProcessAttach function also call qemuProcessWaitForMonitor and directly
pass -1 as an argument, so if (pos != -1) statement can't been run for ever,
it also means we can't allocate memory to 'buf' variable, that is, 'buf' is
a initial value NULL, however, the function 
qemuProcessReadLogFD(logfd, buf, buf_size, strlen(buf)) will be called
on 'cleanup' section, null pointer passed as an argument.

* src/qemu/qemu_process.c: avoid null pointer passed as an argument to a
 'nonnull' parameter.
