This is definitely not the right place to fix the issue. virCPUx86GetMap
is called from a lot of places and your patch would only fix one of
them. Moreover the message itself is not very helpful as it doesn't say
why the CPU map is invalid. The right solution would be to show the
error reported from virCPUx86LoadMap. However, it is called inside
virCPUx86DriverOnceInit, which is only called once per libvirtd life
time. I think you'd need to store that error and reuse it everytime
cpuMap is NULL inside virCPUx86GetMap.
