This flag will allow to use qemu guest agent commands to disable

How do guest CPU offline/online state changes relate
to the offline/online state changes we have traditionally
done via the monitor.

ie if we offline a CPU with the guest agent, will then
now be visible in the state via the monitor ? And the
reverse ?

If you modify the guest state via agent it is not visible to the host (except for the VCPU not consuming cpu time).

If you hotplug/unplug cpus via the monitor, the cpu is added/removed to the guest and thus visible in the agent output.
