If QEMU driver fails to initialize for whatever reason (it can be as trivial as a typo on qemu.conf), the control jumps to error label in qemuStateInitialize() where qemuStateCleanup() is called which frees the driver. But the daemon then asks drivers to prepare for shutdown, which in case of QEMU driver is implemented in qemuStateShutdownPrepare(). In here, the driver is dereferenced but since it was freed earlier, the pointer is NULL which leads to instant crash. Solution is simple - just check if qemu_driver is not NULL. But doing so only in qemuStateShutdownPrepare() would push the problem down to virStateShutdownWait(), well qemuStateShutdownWait(). Therefore, duplicate the trick there too.

Libvirt API for virtualization
==============================
Libvirt provides a portable, long term stable C API for managing the
virtualization technologies provided by many operating systems. It
includes support for QEMU, KVM, Xen, LXC, bhyve, Virtuozzo, VMware
vCenter and ESX, VMware Desktop, Hyper-V, VirtualBox and the POWER
Hypervisor.
For some of these hypervisors, it provides a stateful management
daemon which runs on the virtualization host allowing access to the
API both by non-privileged local users and remote users.
Layered packages provide bindings of the libvirt C API into other
languages including Python, Perl, PHP, Go, Java, OCaml, as well as
mappings into object systems such as GObject, CIM and SNMP.
