Is "-global driver=xlnx,,zynqmp,property=has_rpu,value=on"
without an explicit -smp option supposed to be a supported
configuration?

0) On current master, we have this:

  $ ./aarch64-softmmu/qemu-system-aarch64 -machine xlnx-zcu102 -global 
driver=xlnx,,zynqmp,property=has_rpu,value=on
  **
  ERROR:/home/ehabkost/rh/proj/virt/qemu/tcg/tcg.c:538:tcg_register_thread: 
assertion failed: (n < max_cpus)
  Aborted (core dumped)

1) With your patch we have this:

  $ ./aarch64-softmmu/qemu-system-aarch64 -machine xlnx-zcu102 -global 
driver=xlnx,,zynqmp,property=has_rpu,value=on -monitor stdio
  QEMU 2.10.50 monitor - type 'help' for more information
  (qemu) qemu-system-aarch64: info: The 'has_rpu' property is no longer 
required, to use the RPUs just use -smp 6.
  (qemu) info cpus
  * CPU #0: thread_id=1662
  (qemu) 

2) With your patch plus Emilio's original min_cpus/default_cpus
proposal[1], we have this:

  $ ./aarch64-softmmu/qemu-system-aarch64 -machine xlnx-zcu102 -global 
driver=xlnx,,zynqmp,property=has_rpu,value=on -monitor stdio
  QEMU 2.10.50 monitor - type 'help' for more information
  (qemu) qemu-system-aarch64: info: The 'has_rpu' property is no longer 
required, to use the RPUs just use -smp 6.

    CPU #2: (halted) thread_id=7114
    CPU #3: (halted) thread_id=7115
  (qemu)

3) With Emilio's max_additional_cpus proposal[2], we have this:

  $ ./aarch64-softmmu/qemu-system-aarch64 -machine xlnx-zcu102 -global 
driver=xlnx,,zynqmp,property=has_rpu,value=on -monitor stdio
  QEMU 2.10.50 monitor - type 'help' for more information
  (qemu) info cpus
  * CPU #0: thread_id=4045
    CPU #1: (halted) thread_id=4046
    CPU #2: (halted) thread_id=4047
    CPU #3: (halted) thread_id=4048
    CPU #4: (halted) thread_id=4049
    CPU #5: (halted) thread_id=4050
  (qemu) 


Which option is preferred?  I like option #2 because it's
simpler, but I would like to confirm this is really the intended
behavior.
