Subject: vbox: get rid of g_pVBoxGlobalData
X-Git-Url: http://xenbits.xensource.com/gitweb?a=commitdiff_plain;h=6358653596faa51e6db75cdfefa187ffa118a28a;p=libvirt.git

vbox: get rid of g_pVBoxGlobalData

now that we have a new global vboxDriver object, remove the old
vboxGlobalData struct and all references to it.
