I'm not familiar with the ordering between the code in the previous
patch and the code in this patch. What is the order? Do we first
validate and then prepare/fill, or vice versa?

Also, what happens if the domain config explicitly disables SMM
emulation in <features>, but the firmware requires it? See my point (2)
in message
<https://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2019-February/msg01669.html>.
Will qemuFirmwareEnableFeatures() simply overwrite the setting? I think
we should reject the firmware descriptor instead, in
qemuFirmwareMatchDomain().

Thanks
Laszlo
