The idea is that "-smp" does not migrate and if we run source and
destination guests with different numbers in -smp, we end up with weird
machine because interrupt server properties (gserver?) in the device tree
are different and no reconfiguration happens (no such mechanism as I know)
the whole XICS behaves different.

The patch just prevents migration from succeeding which seems better.
