When vcpu placement is "auto", the domain process will be pinned to advisory nodeset from querying numad, While emulatorpin will override the pinning. That means both of them are to set the pinning policy for domain process, but conflicts with each other. This patch prohibit specifiying emulatorpin if vcpu placement is "auto".
