Public bug reported:

The value of libvirt_type in nova.conf is not respected when Nova
launches libguestfs appliances.  This can cause problems were an
administrator has explicitly set libvirt_type=qemu to work around KVM
issues (or to test qemu).  Newer versions of libguestfs support the
'force_tcg' option to disable the use of hardware emulation.
