Just a note to help others -- during my latest dist-upgrade, I was
prompted whether or not I wanted to overwrite a particular kvm-related
file to add another permissions line for seabios. I was worried about
losing other customizations to this file and declined -- neglecting to
write down the important change. (Lesson: don't do these things late at
night when you're tired!)

This of course caused all my virtual machines to refuse to start with
the errors shown above. It took QUITE awhile for me to find the file I
had to change manually, and it's such a simple change.

You must edit /etc/apparmor.d/abstractions/libvert-qemu and add the
following line (after line 63, if you haven't already added lines beyond
the standard definition); it will be right after a nearly identical line
for vgabios:

  /usr/share/seabios/** r,

After adding that line, my VMs were able to start right back up again!
