Re: [PATCH] qemu_domain: tolerate ACPI feature on S390

Migrations of S390 domains from hosts with QEMU supporting ACPI and

libvirt version prior 9.1.0 fail when the destination host runs a QEMU
not supporting ACPI and a libvirt version 9.1.0 or older. Actually S390
never supported ACPI but domains were allowed to have the feature ACPI
enabled and it was silently tolerated. To allow migration from libvirt
versions prior 9.1.0 which allowed the ACPI feature to be used on S390
tolerate ACPI by setting it to absent if specified and QEMU does not
support it.

I'll be posting very soon a version that adds more explanation and has
tests so please have a look at that one.
It does effectively the same thing to hack around the broken s390
configs ...
