This destination CLI aren't exactly correct as well since
it should've been exactly the same -smp as on source + a bunch of -device
cpufoo...
so we can always say go fix your CLI so it won't trigger error.

either that or cores=8 or cores=4,sockets=2 ...

I think that s*t*c should describe topology of whole machine
including not yet plugged vcpus. "cpus = s*t*c" probably won't work
for partially filled package case:
-smp 1,cores=1,threads=8,sockets=1
cores/threads should reflect full package configuration
for guest to see an expected topology.
