Series KVM/ARM: Relax the max 123 vcpus limitation along with KVM GICv3 | expand

Commit Message

Eric Auger May 30, 2018, 11:45 a.m. UTC 
Add virt-3.0 machine type.

This machine type allows up to 512 vcpus whereas for
earlier machine types, max_cpus was set to 255 and
any attempt to start the machine with vcpus > 255
was rejected at vl.c/main level.
