As a follow-up, unlike my local machine,  testing is still very slow
to boot domains.  For instance, 31s to be logged in:

  $ make kvmsh-east
  ...
  kvmsh 31.02: Escape character is ^]

and looking at where that time is spent:

[root at east ~]# systemd-analyze blame
         11.562s network.service
          2.574s dev-vda1.device
          2.345s sssd.service
          2.000s systemd-vconsole-setup.service
          1.813s systemd-udev-trigger.service
          1.214s initrd-switch-root.service
          .....

All up I seem to be missing ~10 seconds.
