[PATCH 2/4] Avoid LXC pivot root in the root source is still /

["Daniel P. Berrange" <berrange@xxxxxxxxxx>]

From: "Daniel P. Berrange" <berrange@xxxxxxxxxx>

If the LXC config has a filesystem

  <filesystem>
     <source dir='/'/>
     <target dir='/'/>
  </filesystem>

then there is no need to go down the pivot root codepath.
We can simply use the existing root as needed.
