Actually this was a bug in the test case addition which made it silently
do the wrong thing.

I passed current CPUs instead of max CPUs to the test case and thus

qemuMonitorGetCPUInfoHotplug() ended up hitting:

    if (totalvcpus != maxvcpus) {
        VIR_DEBUG("expected '%zu' total vcpus got '%zu'", maxvcpus, totalvcpus);
        return -1;
    }

qemuMonitorGetCPUInfo()  ignores this error though and falls back to
reporting some generic info. I'm not convinced that qemuMonitorGetCPUInfo
is right in ignoring all errors from qemuMonitorGetCPUInfoHotplug but
I've not investigated further.

Daniel
