So you'd leave it in virHostCPUGetInfoPopulateLinux()? Why?
With my approach, the value is changed only in
virHostCPUGetInfoParseCPUInfo(), which makes IMHO more sense than
spreading the code that changes it across two functions.

Most functions in libvirt either perform all tasks succesfully or
return a failure, so failing here is in line both with that and
with the existing behavior.
