Correct, each backend will create the directories differently and there
are different rules applies, so the flag can be ignored if there is no
need to handle it.

Good point, I'll fix that and as a followup we should fix it for cgroup
v1 backend as well.

The point of EEXIST was the there can be race condition when file
creation so in case mkdir() fails with EEXIST we are ignoring that
error. The race condition may happen if you start multiple guests
on non-systemd OS where libvirt is actually creating the whole
hierarchy and you need to create the /machines partition directory
itself (my guess, I did not verify it).

No reason, they can be merged.
