What I think is happening is that all your 'idle' qemu thingies keep

cpu with a pending task while another one goes idle.

Those qemus have two threads each (one vcpu thread, one io thread).

(Why does qemu keep waking if its idle? broken NOHZ?)

Could be waking up due to guest wakeups, or qemu internal wakeups (display refresh) or due to guest timer sources which are masked away in the guest (if that's the case we should optimize it away).
