Hello!

To tell the truth, i don't know, and we currently do not test ivshmem with
hotplug here, neither i heard that we would want it. And i actually even don't
know how hotplug works in qemu.
I discovered an issue and fixed it - this simple. Without this fix ivshmem +
hostmem-file is unusable because the file cannot be located, therefore the
memory cannot be shared.
Could this (possibly) missing thing be added afterwards, if necessary? Anyway,
my fix does not break anything (i hope).
