Well, we could extend vcpu hotplug to deal with those kinds of cpu 
topology changes, but I guess that doesn't help most Windows/hvm 
guests.  But I think if those vcpus stop being siblings, I don't think 
it would hurt if we stopped gang scheduling them, so long as they're 
kept close (same package, I guess).
