[Qemu-ppc] [PATCH RFC 00/16] Rework SMP parameters

[Andrew Jones]

This series is a first step in eliminating smp_* global
variables (the last patch gets rid of two of them!) And, it's
a first step in deprecating '-smp' in favor of using machine
properties, e.g.
 qemu -machine pc,sockets=2,cores=2,threads=2,maxcpus=8,cpus=8 ...

It's also a first step in allowing machine types to override
the default parameter parsing, which makes assumptions that
not all machine types may agree with. (mach-virt is coming...)

So, three first steps, I guess that's 3 steps. And a forth
thing it does is some fixes for the smp parsing and also for
SMBIOS use of cpu topology.

Tested with kvm-unit-tests on all five arches supported
there, x86_64 both with KVM and TCG, and booting an x86_64
guest (KVM) to check SMBIOS before and after in order to make
sure it was the same. Also compile tested all targets.

Thanks,
drew
