NACK, this is incorrect and breaking historical libvirt behaviour.
When QEMU does not report any default machine type for an
architecture, libvirt would pick the first machine type
it found. This is why "integratorcp" must be listed here.
I suspected as much after initially discussing the issue, hence
why I CC'd you when posting. Looks like that was a good call! :)
