Perhaps a nit, but "embed driver" makes it sound like it's a separate
hypervisor driver, when in reality it's just the QEMU driver running
in embedded mode.

I suggest reworking this along the lines of

  qemu: Various improvements to embedded mode

  Embedded mode for the QEMU driver, as well as the
  ``virt-qemu-run`` tool, saw improvements [...]

This describes the original issue rather than the fix that was
applied to address it. Maybe use something like
