The first VGA and IDE devices need to have fixed PCI address
reservations. Currently this is handled inline with the other
non-primary VGA/IDE devices. The fixed virtio balloon device
at slot 3, ensures auto-assignment skips the slots 1/2. The
virtio address will shortly become configurable though. This
means the reservation of fixed slots needs to be done upfront
to ensure that they don't get re-used for other devices.
This is more or less reverting the previous changeset:

Fix restore of QEMU guests with PCI device reservation
The difference is that this time, instead of unconditionally
reserving the address, we only reserve the address if it was
initially type=none. Addresses of type=pci were handled
earlier in process by qemuDomainPCIAddressSetCreate(). This
ensures restore step doesn't have problems

LibVirt : simple API for virtualization
Libvirt is a C toolkit to interact with the virtualization capabilities
of recent versions of Linux (and other OSes). It is free software
available under the GNU Lesser General Public License. Virtualization of
the Linux Operating System means the ability to run multiple instances of
Operating Systems concurrently on a single hardware system where the basic
resources are driven by a Linux instance. The library aim at providing
long term stable C API initially for the Xen paravirtualization but
should be able to integrate other virtualization mechanisms if needed.
