When QEMU is started with:
-cpu host,host-cache-info=on,l3-cache=off \
-smp 2,sockets=1,dies=1,cores=1,threads=2
Guest can't acquire maximum number of addressable IDs for processor cores in
the physical package from CPUID[04H].

When testing Intel TDX, guest attempts to acquire extended topology from CPUID[0bH],
but because the TDX module doesn't provide the emulation of CPUID[0bH],
guest will instead acquire extended topology from CPUID[04H]. However,
due to QEMU's inaccurate emulation of CPUID[04H], one of the vcpus in 2c TDX
guest would be offline.

Fix it by removing the unnecessary condition.

I guess this case is based on downstream's TDX patches... Since TDX
hasn't landed in QEMU yet, it's a bit ahead of the curve to elaborate on
TDX-specific case.

Because normal VM will also face the such cache topology error, I think
it could be stated a bit more generically like:

When creating a CPU topology of 1 core per package, host-cache-info only
uses the Host's addressable core IDs field (CPUID.04H.EAX[bits 31-26]),
resulting in a conflict (on the multicore Host) between the Guest core
topology information in this field and the Guest's actual cores number.

Fix it by removing the unnecessary condition to cover 1 core per package
case. This is safe because cores_per_pkg will not be 0 and will be at
least 1.

12 characters (d7caf13b5fcf) is enough. No blank line. ;-)

yes. it's not TDX specific though it's found by TDX case.

I think We can reproduce it by limiting the "min-level" to less than 0xb 
and disable "full-cpuid-auto-level". With it, CPUID leaves 0xb are not 
exposed to guest and guest will use leaves 0x4 to enumerate the CPU 
topology.

yeah. This is the exact commit that introduced the issue. Because it moved

	*eax &= ~0xFC000000;

into the condition of

	cs->nr_cores > 1
