This will override any value set in the "mp-affinity" property,
The mp-affinity property can be set by the user in the
command-line, and it is also set by machvirt_init() in
hw/arm/virt.c.

Considering that each CPU is supposed to have a different value,
I doubt there are existing use cases for mp-affinity being set
directly by the user.

I suggest having a "cluster-size" property, instead of
"mp-affinity". This way the mp_affinity field can be calculated
on realize, based on the configured cluster-size.
