I think there's some other problems in the kernel or xl. First of all, the
(null) name should not appera in the list, if there is, then this
VM is not fullly destoried I think, but when I'm trying to destory the vm, libxl
reported errors and the VM still exists. Second of all, I notice that your
DOM0's name is (null), and State is running, how could you do that? I manully
tryed out 'xl rename "(null)"' to rename DOM0's name to (null), but after
that I can still rename the name back with my patch.

We often met the "(null)" problem's either, but never met that problem on 
DOM0...
And the "(null)" problem often happened after "xl destory". We can not
figure out a method to reproduce this problem.

Below is the output(without this patch):
