In qemu-kvm, the cpus_sts bitmap array in PIIX4PMState/ACPIGPE has the true 
number of online CPUS. This is accessed from the DSDT hotplug method in Seabios
 as "OperationRegion SystemIO" with address 0xaf00. Is this i/o address in the 
piix4 spec?  How can it be accessed from the rest of SeaBIOS? It seems to 
reside 
in ACPI_PM space.
