this is because the function probes for files that are in different
locations on SLES, namely it looks for "/usr/share/OVMF/OVMF_CODE.fd"
/ /usr/share/AAVMF/AAVMF_CODE.fd which are the documented upstream
defaults. However the SLES libvirt is compiled to default to different
paths, that exist.
one possibility would be to introspect domCapabilities from libvirt,
which works just fine. An alternative patch is to just add the
alternative paths for now.
