Starting a KVM guest on s390 fails immediately. This is because
"qemu --help" reports -no-acpi even for the s390(x) architecture but
-no-acpi isn't supported there.
Workaround is to remove QEMU_CAPS_NO_ACPI from the capability set
after the version/capability extraction.

I don't think this is the right approach. I mean, if qemu's broken
shouldn't it be fixed?
