I'd personally NACK this series for the time being. Per the qemu
maintainers, q35 isn't really fully ready until 1.4. They're actively
in the process of hashing out the machine type which will be exposed
on the command line and via QMP so I think we really need to wait
until that lands in upstream's repo before we add code for it in
libvirt.

Just my 2c.
