I think oVirt allows you only to modify the corresponding "-cpu ..."
options for the corresponding qemu-system-x86_64 executable through edit vm
--> custom properties --> add extra_cpu_flags custom property.
The "-machine ..." options are indirectly set when you choose between
I440FX or one of the Q35 options in Chipset/Firmware Type.
That said, it seems the bug you pointed out has been fixed in kernel 6.2
What kind of OS/kernel are you using in your hypervisors?

Eg in CentOS Stream 9 it seems it has been fixed since 5.14.0-275.el9
