[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v2] qemu-kvm: avoid strlen of NULL pointer

[Jens Osterkamp]

If the user wants to create a chardev of type socket but forgets to give a
host= option, qemu_opt_get returns NULL. This NULL pointer is then fed into
strlen a few lines below without a check which results in a segfault.
This fixes it.
