KVM_CAP_NR_VCPUS is used to get the "recommended" maximum number of VCPUs and arm64/mips/riscv report num_online_cpus(). Powerpc reports either num_online_cpus() or num_present_cpus(), s390 has multiple constants depending on hardware features. On x86, KVM reports an arbitrary value of '710' which is supposed to be the maximum tested value but it's possible to test all KVM_MAX_VCPUS even when there are less physical CPUs available. Drop the arbitrary '710' value and return num_online_cpus() on x86 as well. The recommendation will match other architectures and will mean 'no CPU overcommit'. For reference, QEMU only queries KVM_CAP_NR_VCPUS to print a warning when the requested vCPU number exceeds it. The static limit of '710' is quite weird as smaller systems with just a few physical CPUs should certainly "recommend" less.
