FWIW: I got confused by the time I got to patch 3... the "loadparm" add
added to the -machine qemu command line, but the libvirt XML is added to
the disk device entry.

Perhaps just add a sample here to show where the XML gets added.

Patch ordering - the docs/news.xml should be a single commit and would
be the the last commit.  Still at least you have it there.

When you change/add RNG/XML - there should be adjustments to
qemuxml2xmltest.c and of course xml2xml tests.  Many examples of this to
draw from.

Since DV is cutting 3.4.0 tomorrow, this probably slides into 3.5.0.
Given when I realized by patch 2, probably no big deal!
