This is a nice reduction!  So much more understandable.

It would seem this could be related to an earlier patch - that is the
cpuUpdate patch...  It can stay here, but it just feels like it could move.

So this will fail for mode == VIR_CPU_MODE_HOST_MODEL if ->cpuModel
wasn't filled in, but it's just not clear enough to me (after 40
patches) whether the following checks could return NULL for the
GetHostModel. IIRC none of the failures are cores, just reported errors,
which is good and I supposed would be expected by this point in time!

This could legally be NULL and thus cause failures in the various
compare function callbacks.

Same here for update callbacks
