This sounds fishy. Looking at the code libvirt decides whether to use
agent or ACPI based on:

a) flags (but since you're passing 0 this is out of the picture),
b) guest agent being available,

This means that agent must have connected between two virDomainReboot()
calls. Otherwise libvirt would make the same choice.

Well, the qemuDomainSetFakeReboot(false) call was added in b0c144c5792
which points to:

  https://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2015-April/msg00732.html

I think the patch proposed there is actually right and not the one that
was merged.
