If a network interface model is not specified, libvirt will run into an unchecked NULL pointer coredump. On the other hand if the empty model is ignored, a PCI bus address would be generated, which is not supported by S390. Since the only valid network type model for S390 is virtio, we use this as the default value, which is the same for QEMU.
