I think what you are asking is can you use more ARM CPUs on your host to
emulate multiple x86 CPUs in your guest?
The answer is you can't as the x86 has a stronger memory model than ARM
hence barriers and atomics wouldn't behave as expected with multiple
threads. For this reason the TCG code automatically selects
single-threaded round-robin emulation.
On the command line you can force --accel tcg,thread=multi but it will
complain about it and it's likely you get weird errors in your guest.
