Public bug reported:

cpu_mode=host-model

With cpu_mode host-model, nova is creating vm instances with

<emulator>/usr/sbin/qemu-system-i386</emulator>

i686 emulator, the causes the VM/Images with X86_64 based OS to fail to
boot.

setting cpu_mode explicitly to custom and cpu_model=SandyBridge resolves
this. Don't think this should be required.
