Sam-I-Am was reporting this in the nova IRC channel, same failure but
with more details:

http://paste.openstack.org/show/488781/

In his case the host capabilities xml does not have a cpu model, so
setting cpu_mode=none in nova.conf doesn't help, the details are in the
stack trace:

danpb said this about the failure:

danpb	Sam-I-Am: oh that's totally bogus and unrelated to the cpu_mode/cpu_model config options	16:05
danpb	Sam-I-Am: in the host.py  get_capabilities() method before it does                           [self._caps.host.cpu.to_xml()],	16:05
danpb	Sam-I-Am: it should check whether self._cps.host.cpu has a non-None model	16:06
danpb	Sam-I-Am: if the model is None, it should skip the baselineCPU() api call
