Right, that would be fail. But Andi was talking about physical hotplug,
and that should work if the BIOS isn't weird like that.

Now obviously we cannot trust the BIOS to not be weird and tglx is
working on new topology bits that can indeed accommodate BIOS fail.

Would still be good to complain on boot if we find such weirdness, even
if its not fatal anymore.
