Will this allow the fdset refcount to get to zero?  I was hoping your 
patches would prevent that from happening.  Perhaps Kevin or Eric can 
weigh in.  qemu_open() increments the refcount for an fdset when an fd 
from it is used, and qemu_close() decrements it.  I think if you were 
able to perform the open before the close here that refcount wouldn't 
get to zero.
