As far as I know, SMP support for HVM guest is not supported until at
least 3.0.4 - maybe not even then. It's not so much that it doesn't work
to run SMP guests, but rather that the tools don't allow the information
about number of processors to be transferred from the configuration file
to the guest itself.
