Title:
  qemu-kvm not working as nested inside ESX 6.0

Status in Ubuntu Cloud Archive:
  New
Status in qemu package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  ESX 6.0 (virt bits exposed) - Ubuntu 16.04 + qemu-kvm 1:2.8+dfsg-
  3ubuntu2~cloud0 - CirrOS launched by OpenStack (devstack master)

  
  VM will start with -machine = 'pc-i440fx-zesty' and will stuck in "booting from hard disk"

  to fix it you can manually change -machine to 'pc-i440fx-2.3'

  also, ISOs boots well, so I think it`s something about block devices
  configuration introduced in new machine type.

  p.s.
  also confirmed with RHEL instead of Ubuntu as KVM host - new machine type don`t work
