Daniel P. Berrange 7b3c618ad0 io: fix stack allocation when sending of file descriptors
When sending file descriptors over a socket, we have to
allocate a data buffer to hold the FDs in the scmsghdr.
Unfortunately we allocated the buffer on the stack inside
an if () {} block, but called sendmsg() outside the block.
So the stack bytes holding the FDs were liable to be
overwritten with other data. By luck this was not a problem
when sending 1 FD, but if sending 2 or more then it would
fail.

The fix is to simply move the variables outside the nested
'if' block. To keep valgrind quiet we also zero-initialize
the 'control' buffer.
