From: Dunrong Huang <riegamaths@gmail.com>

Add a helper function for fetching max cpus supported by kvm.

Make QEMU exit with an error message if smp_cpus exceeds limit
of VCPU count retrieved by invoking this helper function.

Don't exit here, just use 'goto err' like all the other checks in
this function. The caller will handle this and exit (or downgrade
to TCG if the user wanted that).

Thanks for your review.
I agree with you, I should use "goto err" like other checks.
