Xen 3.0.2 definitely doesn't have the relevant code to give the guest
info on number of CPU's. 3.0.4 supports SMP ACPI tables from the
hvmloader, which is what SMP guests need.
3.0.3, I don't believe has any improvement on the SMP-guest
capabilities, but there are some other improvements in the HVM support.
