spapr: ensure we have at least one XICS server
XICS needs to know the upper value for cpu_index as it is used to compute
the number of servers:
smp_cpus * kvmppc_smt_threads() / smp_threads
When passing -smp cpus=1,threads=9 on a POWER8 host, we end up with:
1 * 8 / 9 = 0
... which leads to an assertion in both emulated:
Number of servers needs to be greater 0
Aborted (core dumped)
... and in-kernel XICS:
xics_kvm_realize: Assertion `icp->nr_servers' failed.
Aborted (core dumped)
With this patch, we are sure that nr_servers > 0. Passing the same bogus
-smp option then leads to:
qemu-system-ppc64: Cannot support more than 8 threads on PPC with KVM
... which is a lot more explicit than the XICS errors.
