RHEL >= 9 and compatible distros like Rocky >= 9 will not boot using
the default qemu CPU. You will see an error at boot:
Fatal glibc error: CPU does not support x86-64-v2
Instead you need to use -cpu host.
In commit f28757c6d1 ("convert_linux: set "gcaps_default_cpu = false"
for x86_64 RHEL-9.0+ guests") we fixed this specifically for RHEL >= 9.
This commit extends the same fix to all RHEL family distros.
Updates: commit f28757c6d100060c65212ea55cfa59d308dcb850
Fixes: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2166619
