If the colo-compare object is removed before failover and a
checkpoint happens, qemu crashes because it tries to lock
the destroyed event_mtx in colo_notify_compares_event.
Fix this by checking if everything is initialized by
introducing a new variable colo_compare_active which
is protected by a new mutex colo_compare_mutex. The new mutex
also protects against concurrent access of the net_compares
list and makes sure that colo_notify_compares_event isn't
active while we destroy event_mtx and event_complete_cond.
With this it also is again possible to use colo without
colo-compare (periodic mode) and to use multiple colo-compare
for multiple network interfaces.

Looks good for me.
I will queue this series.
