Description of problem:
The guest with intel-iommu device enabled can not restore after managedsave.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
libvirt-3.2.0-9.virtcov.el7.x86_64
qemu-kvm-rhev-2.9.0-8.el7.x86_64
How reproducible:
100%
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Prepare a guest with q35 machine type and enable the intel-iommu device:
...
<os>
<type arch='x86_64' machine='pc-q35-rhel7.4.0'>hvm</type> -
<boot dev='hd'/>
</os>
...
<iommu model='intel'/>
</devices>
...
2.start the guest:
#virsh start vm1-q35
3.Enable iommu in the guest:
(1)Edit file "/etc/default/grub":
Append "intel_iommu=on" or "amd_iommu=on" to the value of "GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX=......". Such as the following one:
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="rd.md=0 rd.lvm=0 rd.dm=0 vconsole.keymap=us $([ -x /usr/sbin/rhcrashkernel-param ] && /usr/sbin/rhcrashkernel-param || :) rd.luks=0 vconsole.font=latarcyrheb-sun16 rhgb quiet intel_iommu=on"
(2)Then run the following command to generate the updated grub file:
# grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg
Reboot the guest.
4.Do managedsave:
#virsh managedsave vm1-q35
Domain vm1-q35 state saved by libvirt
5.Start the guest:
#virsh start vm1-q35
# virsh start vm1-q35
error: Failed to start domain vm1-q35
error: operation failed: job: unexpectedly failed
Actual results:
The guest with intel-iommu device enabled can not restore after managedsave.
Expected results:
If the guest with intel-iommu device enabled can not restored after managedsave, libvirt should reject to do managedsave with the guest.
Additional info:
Could see the info below in the libvirtd.log:

Reproduce the issue on qemu-kvm-rhev-2.9.0-16.el7_4.9.x86_64 and verified it on qemu-kvm-rhev-2.10.0-2.el7.x86_64
changed to verified status
Thanks
