#1 Testing different builds on bare metal x86 with questing

### ### ###

Other than in my lxd container based automated tests, host-model here
translates to:

1:10.0.2+ds-1ubuntu2 (this is what is in the current Ubuntu, until I
started on 10.1)

=> On start maps host-model to:
  <model fallback='forbid'>Cascadelake-Server</model>
  <vendor>Intel</vendor>
  <feature policy='require' name='vmx'/>
  <feature policy='require' name='pdcm'/>
  ...
=> Can do managedsave + start without problems

### ### ###

1:10.1.0~rc2+ds-1ubuntu1 (which has 00268e0 "i386/cpu: Warn about why
CPUID_EXT_PDCM is not available" reverted)

=> On start maps host-model to:
  <model fallback='forbid'>Cascadelake-Server</model>
  <vendor>Intel</vendor>
  <feature policy='require' name='vmx'/>
  <feature policy='disable' name='pdcm'/>
                    ^^ this is already different
  ...
=> Can do managedsave + start without problems

### ### ###

1:10.1.0~rc3+ds-2ubuntu1~questingppa1 (which is WITHOUT the revert, more
like the normal RC3)

=> On start maps host-model to:
    <model fallback='forbid'>Cascadelake-Server</model>
    <vendor>Intel</vendor>
    <feature policy='require' name='vmx'/>
    <feature policy='disable' name='pdcm'/>
                       ^^ like with the revert, but other than 10.0 did
  ...
=> Fails to do save and restore just as I had it in my container based tests

$ virsh start testguest 
error: Failed to start domain 'testguest'
error: operation failed: guest CPU doesn't match specification: missing 
features: pdcm


So while I was concerned if my test environment might have been part of this, 
it seems it is generally applicable and a problem.
This is on 6.16.0-13-generic on a Intel Xeon Gold 5222

With that I'd strongly suggest to revert it for now, but let me look
into the cross version migration as well, as this was odd too.
