From: Mike Qiu <qiud...@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
Currently the target-ppc tcg code only supports a single thread. You can
specify more, but they're treated identically to multiple cores. On KVM
we obviously can't support more threads than the hardware; if more are
specified it will cause strange and cryptic errors.
This patch clarifies the situation by giving a simple meaningful error if
more threads are specified than we can support.
