How would this impact someone running juno nova-compute on rhel 6 boxes?
Or installing the python2.7 from SCL and running kilo+ code on rhel6?

For [3] it couldn't we get the exact same information from /proc/cpuinfo?

The minimum required version of libvirt in the driver is 0.9.11 still

The libvirt distro support matrix is here: [2]

Can we safely assume the people aren't going to be running Libvirt
compute nodes on RHEL < 7.1 or Ubuntu Precise?

Regarding RHEL, I think this is a safe bet because in Kilo nova dropped
python 2.6 support and RHEL > 6 doesn't have py26 so you'd be in trouble
running kilo+ nova on RHEL 6.x anyway.

There are some workarounds in the code [3] I'd like to see removed by
bumping the minimum required version.

This would be Liberty, so when you upgrade nova-compute to Liberty you'd also need to upgrade the host OS to something that supports libvirt >= 1.2.2.
