Add the support in libvirt to activate the RAPL feature in QEMU.
This feature is activated with -accel kvm,rapl=true,path=/path/sock.sock
in QEMU.
The feature is activated in libvirt with the following XML
configuration:
<kvm>
[...]
<rapl state ='on' socket='/run/qemu-vmsr-helper.sock'/>
[...]
</kvm>

case VIR_DOMAIN_VIRT_HVF:
Apart from that the rest looks good providing the following:
I suppose that the 'rapl-helper-socket' is a shared (multiple qemu's use
it) resource set up beforehand by the admin. Right?
If that is the case that means the lifecycle of the daemon and
permissions (including selinux) for accessing the socket are not
something that libvirt needs to deal with.
If either of them isn't true please outline how that socket is to be
used to see how libvirt will need to approach it.
