Support for GICv3 has been recently introduced in qemu using gic-version
option for the 'virt' machine. The option can actually take values of
'2', '3' and 'host', however, since in libvirt this is a numeric
parameter, we limit it only to 2 and 3. Value of 2 is not added to the
command line in order to keep backward compatibility with older qemu
versions.

Indentation's off here.

Also before this patch we would allow def->gic_version == 2 for any
machine type.  I don't have a problem with this since GIC doesn't make
sense anywhere else then on ARM machines, but shouldn't we check for
the fact that the request is for ARM (in case, for example, if ppc64
gains some 'virt' machine type)?  Because we have no guarantee that
it's ARM just based on the machine type.

+                        return -1;

I'd change this to:

if (gic != 2) {
   if (!caps)
       error;
   append_cmd();
}

If you're ok with that, just let me know and I'll push it with the
following diff squashed in, right after the release:
