As mentioned previously, this should either be removed or changed to a
debug statement.

Could we just check vphn_enabled here? The init routine will set this to true
only if the feature is supported and we are using shared processors.

Also, this routine seems a bit odd. The only place it is called from is an
init routine, topology_update_init. Is there a reason this check couldn't just
be in that routine, or it seems like you could just call topology_schedule_update
directly from start_topology_update when vphn is initialized.
