Currently threads are not supported, effectively increasing the number of cpus,
so this is currently correct. Once the machine version limits the threads to 1,
it is also correct. However, once we support multiple threads, this becomes incorrect.
I wonder if it's ok from a backward compatibility point of view to modify the smp values
by doing cores *= threads, threads = 1 for old machines.
Then you can just use the cores value and it is always correct.
In any case, if you keep it as is, I'd like to see a comment here saying that this
is correct only so long as we don't support threads.
