If this is related to libvirt detecting the wrong CPU, we have a
short
wiki page [1] for that either, you can link to that in yours (or maybe
it'll help you write it).
Thank you. I'll take a look. More below.

At first, let me say that this is very weird CPU detection as
according
to these flags, the processor described in here should be "Nehalem".
Could you try running 'virsh -r capabilities' on the host to check what
libvirt reports?

There might be a possible workaround if you want your CPU to be
identified as different model, most probably by editing
'/usr/share/libvirt/cpu_map.xml', but that should be omitted since it
may lead to problems.
Non applicable workaround then. I should have expected it.
Ok, I prefer not having additional problems.

And as I see the CPU is SandyBridge, so this should be solved
properly
(probably a bug somewhere or very low-level misconfiguration). Check
[1], maybe some features can get enabled.
The machine is in a datacentre so I doubt I can change any BIOS or UEFI settings.
