[PATCH 1/2] ppc/pnv: Exit gracefully if CPU topology doesn't match the machine capacities

[Greg Kurz]

QEMU crashes when started with:

   -machine powernv,num-chips=2 -smp cores=2 -accel tcg,thread=multi

ERROR:
tcg/tcg.c:789:tcg_register_thread: assertion failed: (n < ms->smp.max_cpus)
Aborted (core dumped)

This happens because the powernv machine creates num-chips * smp.cores
CPUs, which might exceed the maximum number of CPUs of the CPU topology
as computed by smp_parse().

Check the CPU topology in pnv_set_num_chips().
