Hi Lubo, after these patches was the VM usefully usable, did this simply
start up?

There is effectively no qemu-system-mips* mips coverage in virt-install
or libvirt unit test suites, we should add some if we don't want this to
regress. If the XML virt-install generates for you is useful, we could
drop it into libvirt's qemuxml2argvtest

Thanks,
Cole
