      Starting vm with bridge type interface connected to ovs bridge will trigger avc denied error

      Please provide the package NVR for which bug is seen:

      # rpm -q selinux-policy libvirt openvswitch3.3
      selinux-policy-40.13.12-1.el10.noarch
      libvirt-10.8.0-3.el10.x86_64
      openvswitch3.3-3.3.0-8.el10fdp.x86_64

      How reproducible:

      100%

      Steps to reproduce

      1. prepare a vm with bridge type interface which connected to a ovs bridge:

      # systemctl start openvswitch
      # ovs-vsctl add-br ovsbr0
      # ovs-vsctl show
      77b8adab-043f-4bd4-9761-615c4b4412f4
          Bridge ovsbr0
              Port ovsbr0
                  Interface ovsbr0
                      type: internal
          ovs_version: "3.3.2-8.el10fdp"
      
      # virsh dumpxml rhel --xpath //interface
      <interface type="bridge">
        <mac address="52:54:00:1b:89:d2"/>
        <source bridge="ovsbr0"/>
        <virtualport type="openvswitch">
          <parameters interfaceid="e463bd02-9f61-4efc-b180-215941b34fca"/>
        </virtualport>
        <model type="virtio"/>
        <address type="pci" domain="0x0000" bus="0x03" slot="0x00" function="0x0"/>
      </interface>
      

      2. start the vm will trigger the avc denied error:
      # virsh start rhel
      Domain 'rhel' started

      # ausearch -m avc
