Just tested with the above patch - it doesn't seem to help.

Applied it:

    $ git log | head -5
    commit da0a33c3f286ff69b910bc2a84e9ec3a844e3ce8

        qemu: use systemd's TerminateMachine to kill all processes

And tested (by building RPMs, restarting libvirtd and attempting to
start the guest again, still no luck:

    $ sudo systemctl restart libvirtd
    $ sudo systemctl daemon-reload

    $ virsh start ostack-controller
    error: Failed to start domain ostack-controller
    error: error from service: CreateMachine: Machine 'qemu-ostack-controller' already exists
 
That's the version of systemd I'm using: systemd-210-7.fc21.x86_64.
