Changes from v7->v8:

* Patch 3: Rather than using cpu_index to set cpu_num temporarily, squash 
  in pieces from other patches -- specifically next_cpu_id and move of 
  cpu_exec_init to realizefn (David)
* Patch 4: New patch, splits out toleration of max_cpus (Igor)
* Patch 5: 
     * use hotplug_dev instead of qdev_get_machine (Igor)
     * Add missing g_free(name) (Igor)
* Patch 6:
     * Change s390_new_cpu to take cpu_model parm.  Move to helper.c, call 
       s390_new_cpu from cpu_s390x_init.  (David)
     * s/local_err/err/ (David)
     * Drop getter routine for id property, move some sanity checking from 
       setter to realize (David)
     * Drop unnecessary unref (David)
	
**************

As discussed in the KVM call, we will go ahead with cpu_add for 
s390x to get cpu hotplug functionality in s390x now, until
architectures that require a more robust hotplug interface
settle on a design.

To configure a guest with 2 CPUs online at 
boot and 4 maximum:

qemu -smp 2,maxcpus=4

Or, when using libvirt:
  <domain>
    ...
    <vcpu current="2">4</vcpu>
    ...
  </domain> 


To subsequently hotplug a CPU:

Issue 'cpu-add <id>' from qemu monitor, or use virsh setvcpus --count <n> 
<domain>, where <n> is the total number of desired guest CPUs.

At this point, the guest must bring the CPU online for use -- This can be 
achieved via "echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuX/online" or via a management 
tool like cpuplugd.

This patch set is based on work previously done by Jason Herne.

  s390x/cpu: Tolerate max_cpus
  s390x/cpu: Add CPU property links
  s390x/cpu: Add error handling to cpu creation
  s390x/cpu: Allow hotplug of CPUs
