[Qemu-devel] [PATCH] Reorder alarm timer setup again

[Jan Kiszka]

From: Jan Kiszka <address@hidden>

ac4119c023 moved the alarm timer initialization to an earlier point but
failed to consider that it depends on qemu_init_main_loop. Instead of
moving the wrong things before os_daemonize, better push alarm timer
right after qemu_init_main_loop and move the chardev initialization
after this.
