[PATCH] fix segfault during virsh save in pv guest

[Bamvor Jian Zhang <bjzhang@xxxxxxxx>]

this patch fix the wrong sequence for fd and timeout register. the sequence
was right in dfa1e1dd for fd register, but it changed in e0622ca2.
in this patch, set priv, xl_priv in info and increase info->priv ref count
before virEventAddHandle. if do this after virEventAddHandle, the fd
callback or fd deregister maybe got the empty priv, xl_priv or wrong ref
count.

after apply this patch, test more than 100 rounds passed compare to fail
within 3 rounds without this patch. each round includes define -> start ->
destroy -> create -> suspend -> resume -> reboot -> shutdown -> save ->
resotre -> dump -> destroy -> create -> setmem -> setvcpus -> destroy.
