Looks fine to me, given CPUs are not in qdev. Anthony?

The idea is fine, but why not just add the default CPU to the machine
description?
If I remember correctly the reason was that the machine description was
not accessible in the cpuid initialization path because it is a function
local variable.

Not tested at all but I think the attached patch addresses it in a pretty nice way.

There's a couple ways you could support your patch on top of this. You could add a kvm_cpu_model to the machine structure that gets defaulted too if kvm_enabled(). You could also introduce a new KVM machine type that gets defaulted to if no explicit machine is specified.

  I could have made it a global variable but considered
the compat_version approach simpler. The qemu_compat_version might also
be useful at other places.

The reason we've avoided having a builtin notion of versions is that we have many downstreams where versioning would get very complicated. If we stick to features it makes it much easier for downstreams.
