Virtual CPU hotplug support is being added across various architectures[1][3].
This series adds various code bits common across all architectures:

1. vCPU creation and Parking code refactor [Patch 1]
2. Update ACPI GED framework to support vCPU Hotplug [Patch 2,3]
3. ACPI CPUs AML code change [Patch 4,5]
4. Helper functions to support unrealization of CPU objects [Patch 6,7]
5. Docs [Patch 8]

above patches look like potential bugfixes (modulo they aren't getting used actually),
only commit messages do not mention adverse effects (which they should do).

Question is:
    do un-destroyed/registered CPU AS and GDB RS affect machines that
    already support cpu hot-unplug? (x86/s380/spapr)

forgot to mention, you probably need to add to series migration code as well
as it should be the same for both targets.
(mostly copy-paste from q35 or piix4 and making sure it doesn't break old qemu
(aka not enabled/sent over wire if cpu hotplug event is disabled))
