This is kinda complicated but i try my best to explain it as much as i
can.

First of all i found out that in bionic beaver cloud image i was able to have 
248 cpus without any issues.
Then i've taken a look into focal, but there i was only able to get up up to 64 
cpus.


Then i've tryed to figure out what was wrong. Debian, wasnt able to handle this 
with a 4.19 kernel.
Bionic beaver had 4.18 so i tried to upgrade to a 4.19 with success but only 
with 64 cpus.

So i think the problem maybe exist since 4.19.

My setup. Openstack Hypervisor with ubuntu 18.04
KVM/Qemu with a vm clean bionic works fine, till i upgrade to a kernel > 4.18.
Every 5.* version seems to be affected as well.

Debian buster has this issue and fedora (Both in latest versions with
kernel above 4.18)


Already started debugging with TJ- at irc.

Paste links with debugging informations

and 
virsh dumpxml of the VM https://pastebin.ubuntu.com/p/sPWHVMn5FX/


CPU on the Hypervisor (works fine):

Hope this helps to dig down the bug.
