On an x86_64 host, for guests using a different architecture (i.e.

vcpus: hotplug problem - VM 130 qmp command 'device_add' failed -
'kvm64-x86_64-cpu' is not a valid device model name

The actual breaking change is for the host arch being something other
than x86_64 (which isn't officially supported) and the VM being x86_64, ...

...because in that case, before this patch we got kvm64 here, but with
the patch we get qemu64 which would be a problem for live-migration.

I expressed my opinion on this matter in the following mail:
