In addition to what Pavel said, if there was a potential for a race on channel 
0, that possibility would also exist for channels 1, 2, and 3 (since they can 
already be enabled when virt-viewer connects). So I don't see any problem with 
treating all channels the same.

I'm comfortable ACKing this patch, but I'd like to have the comment above 
this line of code changed or removed. It's a bit confusing.
