I've got a fix for this, but there is still an issue where upgrades won't work. 
Say a user has two hosts, host1 with a cloudVirBr1201 and host2 with no 
bridges. If we upgrade both hosts to this version, then attempt to live migrate 
a guest from host1 to host2, the migration will fail because it expects the 
same bridge name. In KVM this is handled by libvirt, so not possible to pass a 
new name. 

Not sure what to do about that or at what level the switchover becomes 
acceptable.
