Okay, I didn't see patch 0/3 that summarises the overall approach, nor patch
3/3 which would actually make greater numbers of VCPUs usable. Obviously
that is the most interesting patch since it is a change, or at least
extension, of guest interface. Also it's what makes patches 1/3 and 2/3
actually useful.
