A few code style comments inline.

Having the error condition in the middle is rather confusing to
read to my eyes. Playing with equivalents I wonder what works best..


    if (!is_valid) {
        slot->stat.entries[CPU_TOPOLOGY_LEVEL_SOCKET].max_limit =
            ms->smp.sockets;
    } else if (mc->smp_props.custom_topo_supported) {
        slot->stat.entries[CPU_TOPOLOGY_LEVEL_SOCKET].max_limit =
            config->max_sockets;
    } else {
        error_setg...
        return false;
    }

or take the bad case out first.  Maybe this is a little obscure
though (assuming I even got it right) as it relies on the fact
that is_valid must be false for the legacy path.

    if (!mc->smp_props.custom_topo_supported && is_valid) {
        error_setg();
        return false;
    }

    slot->stat.entries[CPU_TOPOLOGY_LEVEL_SOCKET].max_limit =
          is_valid ? config->maxsockets : ms->smp.sockets;

Similar for other cases.

Maybe early return here to get rid of need for the else?

Unless this is going to get more complex later,  else if probably appropriate here
(if you don't drop the else above.
