And what happens if you have older libvirt and a domain configured with
<seclabel type='none'/> and upgrade libvirt to the state when it actually
enables more than one security driver at a time. Shouldn't such generic
<seclabel type='none'/> actually turn off any labeling, that is, affect
all
the enabled drivers?
IMHO with the old libvirt, if no model=XXXX was set, this was implicitly
refering to the current model.
