It would have a sense if initial memory was also dimms, in that case
for static cases it would be possible to describe numa mapping using
only -device, but we are far from being ale to do it yet.
So right now, I'm not sure if is there are a compelling reasons for
cold-plugged dimms, at startup time initial RAM is sufficient to do the job.
Main goal was to introduce most of infrastructure so that it would be
easier to add hotplug on top.
