I don't really know enough about the libvirt job/obj locking to comment
on the previous patches or that aspect of this one, but in general the
idea of dropping the lock before calling libxl_destroy seems reasonable
to me.
In principal you could use the async stuff (the final NULL to the call),
but you'd still be wanting to drop the lock for that period, so it's not
clear it's any better from your PoV.
