The cpu xml copy is incorrect: the memAccess field is not copied.
The lack of copy of this memAccess field can cause unexpected behaviour for live
migration when vhost user is used.
For example if guest has the following configuration:
....
<cpu>
<model>Westmere</model>
<topology sockets="1" cores="4" threads="1"/>
<numa>
<cell id='0' cpus='0-3' memory='2097152' memAccess='shared'/>
</numa>
</cpu>
....
The used configuration on the remote host in case of live migration is:
....
<cpu mode='custom' match='exact'>
<model fallback='allow'>Westmere</model>
<topology sockets='1' cores='4' threads='1'/>
<numa>
<cell id='0' cpus='0-3' memory='2097152' unit='KiB'/>
</numa>
</cpu>
....
On the remote host the lack of memAccess info can cause unexpected error on the
qemu backend vhost user driver.
Fixes: def6b3598 ("docs, conf, schema: add support for shared memory mapping")
This issue is present only for libvirt1.2.9 to libvirt1.2.12
With patch 181742d43 ("conf: Move all NUMA configuration to virDomainNuma")
present since libvirt1.2.13 the problem does not exist anymore as NUMA
information are no more in the CPU configuration.

LibVirt : simple API for virtualization
Libvirt is a C toolkit to interact with the virtualization capabilities
of recent versions of Linux (and other OSes). It is free software
available under the GNU Lesser General Public License. Virtualization of
the Linux Operating System means the ability to run multiple instances of
Operating Systems concurrently on a single hardware system where the basic
resources are driven by a Linux instance. The library aim at providing
long term stable C API initially for the Xen paravirtualization but
should be able to integrate other virtualization mechanisms if needed.
