I assume this will go via the ppc tree?

I assumed that "git blame" would be enough for a reader that wants more
details :)
Thanks,

Some more details: the 'make check' failure was observed on a POWER8 host
with an old kernel RHEL7 kernel without VSMT support. Passing vsmt=8 to QEMU
causes spapr_set_vsmt_mode() to simply not even try to change the VSMT in KVM
since POWER8 hosts are SMT8 by default, and the VM starts just fine.

I could also check this is doesn't break the following setups:
- KVM HV on POWER9 host
- KVM PR on POWER8 host (just spits a non-fatal warning)
- TCG
Note that migration-test explicitly requires KVM HV. It simply
exits otherwise.
