    Fix crash in remoteDispatchDomainMemoryStats (CVE-2013-4296)
    
    The 'stats' variable was not initialized to NULL, so if some
    early validation of the RPC call fails, it is possible to jump
    to the 'cleanup' label and VIR_FREE an uninitialized pointer.
    This is a security flaw, since the API can be called from a
    readonly connection which can trigger the validation checks.
    
    This was introduced in release v0.9.1 onwards by
    
      commit 158ba8730e44b7dd07a21ab90499996c5dec080a

        Merge all returns paths from dispatcher into single path
