Have you tested that this actually allows for systemd activation of the privileged libvirtd. If we're adding this FD passing, I think we really ought to make sure we support this, so we don't have to revisit it later. Should add a libvirtd.socket unit file too so we have systemd activation by default for libvirtd. NB, we stil need to enable the daemon by default anyway since libvirtd needs todo autostart of VMs, but having the socket activation too avoids some race conditions with startup.
