Starting from commit 2e82c18c in Xen (will be included in Xen 4.4) libxl_get_max_cpus() start returning a proper libxl error code, in case of failure. It returning 0 is now basically impossible but, theoretically, still wrong, not to mention that using '<= 0' makes this correct for both Xen 4.4 and Xen 4.3 (and 4.2). That's why we go for it (rather than just '< 0').
