Some metrics get passed through from host CPUID, some get made up. I think
there was an effort pass thru host cores-per-package so that licenses based
on #physical-packages might 'work right'. The above assertion then couldn't
really work if the number of vcpus assigned to the guest is not divisible by
cores-per-package.
