When security drivers are active and domain def contains no <seclabel> elements, there is no need to autogenerate seclabels when starting the domain, e.g.
<seclabel type='none' model='apparmor'/>
In fact, autogenerating the label can result in needless save/restore and migration failures when the security driver is not active on the restore/migration target.
The virSecurityManagerGenLabel function in src/security_manager.c even has logic to skip autogenerated labels, but the logic is a bit flawed. Autogeneration should be skipped when the domain has not seclabels, i.e. vm->nseclabels == 0.

This would likely cause a regression like we did prior to commit e4a28a3281 which introduced the condition you're changing, IOW if you specify a seclabel specifically, you're still going to autogenerate one of type='none'. So my question is, what's the point of autogenerating seclabel of type='none' anyway? Shouldn't we just skip type='none' altogether when it's us who generated it? Erik
