[Qemu-devel] [RFC PATCH v1 07/13] spapr: Start all the threads of CPU core when core is hotplugged

[Bharata B Rao]

PowerPC kernel adds or removes CPUs in core granularity and hence
onlines/offlines all the SMT threads of a core during hot plug/unplug.
Support this notion by starting all SMT threads of a core when a core
is hotplugged.
