It's just to make the value more visible. We use VIR_CPU_FALLBACK_ALLOW
by default and change it to VIR_CPU_FALLBACK_FORBID when we get the CPU
model from QEMU (rather than by querying the host CPU ourselves).

No. Originally there was no fallback attribute and the functionality was
equivalent to fallback="allow". That is the attribute was added just to
be able to turn fallback off.

It didn't make sense even in the original code (if it did, setting it to
NULL would be a clear memory leak). The initial value of
qemuCaps->hostCPUModel is NULL and the code doesn't touch it until we
know everything is OK.
