Afraid some more changes have landed in GIT that affect you.

All the VIR_*ALLOC* functions, except those suffixed _QUIET
will now call virReportOOMError() for you. So you can remove
virReportOOMError here and all other places related to these
alloc fnuctions.

Also, you should be checking  'VIR_ALLOC_N() < 0', not just
for a non-zero value.

This is wrong. All the cases of error leading to this point are out of
memory errors. It is madness to prevent everything is ok & carry on here.
This should be treated as a proper error.

Under what scenario can libxl_get_numainfo() return NULL ? Unless this
is an valid expected scenario, we should treat this is an error.

Likewise here.
