Hmm what was the reason for this, maybe Dario knows?
In my view we definitely do not want to restrict this to
VIR_CPU_MODE_HOST_PASSTHROUGH only,
but this should be restricted in my view to QEMU hw accelerators that use host
cpuid (as per accel_uses_host_cpuid() -> true),
which are KVM and HVF.
Not sure how to properly check that?
