[PATCH v6 5/5] qobject: modify qobject_ref() to assert on NULL
Message-Id: <20180419150145.24795-6-marcandre.lur...@redhat.com>

I didn't merge it back then because I lacked the time to convince myself
all users of qobject_ref() the patch doesn't guard cannot pass null, and
also because I wasn't sure requiring qobject_ref()'s argument to be
non-null improves legibility of the code.  Right now we got bigger fish
to fry.

This requires qobject_ref(NULL) to work (I thought at one point we were 
considering requiring it to be a non-NULL argument, but right now it 
looks like we are safe).
