We're post-freeze before I reviewed this; on the other hand, I don't
think that adding it now could cause too many issues.  So unless anyone
else speaks up in the next 24 hours, I think I could live with this
making it into 1.0.2.  Then again, I have enough comments on the series
that it will be worth a v2.

As in 1/4, I don't think we need this one, or at least, we don't need
the 'none' value.  As long as 'virtio' is the only model we support, we
may not even need the model='xxx' attribute.  It boils down to a
question of future growth - will it be easier to have model='virtio' now
and add a new model='foo' when (if?) we finally introduce a counterpart
model, or would it be easier to not have model= at all for now, and add
'model=virtio|foo' later on where a missing model defaults to virtio at
that time.

This one is fine.

If the user specified <rng><source
type='none'>/path/to/file</source></rng>, should we error out that a
file name is incompatible with type='none'?

Too much copy and paste in this error message.

You must use virBufferEscape(), as this is a user-supplied file name
which might contain characters that would mess up valid XML if not
escaped properly.

We don't set def->service; why are we freeing it?  Save that field for a
patch that actually extends the XML to use it.

Ah, I see where you plan to add future source types.  Comments here are
okay (as a hint about future development)...

Add /* virDomainRNGSource */, to make it obvious what this int will hold.

...but service seems like an unused field, and probably doesn't make
sense to add until you actually implement those future source types.
