In nova/virt/libvirt/driver.py the _compare_cpu() function checks the cpu features using self._conn.compareCPU().

Is this actually valid? The kvm processes don't seem to have the "--cpu" option specified, so we should get a compatible subset of cpu features from qemu. If that's the case then the host cpu features shouldn't really matter, right?

We're running Havana and hitting live-migration issues between Sandy Bridge and Ivy Bridge due to some differences in the host processor flags. Just wondering what the expected behaviour is.
