[PATCH 1/3] lxc_process: Resolve Coverity NULL_RETURNS error

[John Ferlan <jferlan@xxxxxxxxxx>]

In virLXCProcessReboot, if the 'conn' value is NULL, the eventual
call to virLXCNetworkLookupByName() via virLXCProcessStart() and
virLXCProcessSetupInterfaces() will cause a core since it references
conn->networkDriver directly.
