Is there a reason why libvirtd v6.5.0 opens kernel+initrd in mode RW?
'virsh start vm' fails of both are on a read-only filesystem.
Not sure if this ever worked before.

Hey,
do you see an actual libvirt error? I think this may come from
secdrivers trying to remember the original owner of kernel/initrd files.
If you set remember_owner=0 in /etc/libvirt/qemu.conf (and restart
libvirtd) then does it fix your problem?
