This patch addresses an issue that happens with the pseries machine after testing Paolo's patch [1]: $ sudo ./ppc64-softmmu/qemu-system-ppc64 -nographic -nodefaults -machine pseries --enable-kvm qemu-system-ppc64: Unknown kvm-type specified '' The reason lies on how qemu_opt_get() and object_property_get_str() works when there is no 'kvm-type' specified. We were conting on receiving NULL for kvm-type, but the latter will use a blank string "". Instead on relying on NULL, let's expose the already existing 'auto' kvm-type mode to the users and use that as default.
