Having this set to "none" here simplifies a bit the code when we came to
config file parsing (if I set it to "any CPU" here, I'll have to reset
to "none" before parsing). Also, default is exactly what you're
suggesting already, as I set the map to "any CPU" if no "cpus" config
option is found.

Anyway, I guess I can do as you suggest if you really think it's
better. :-)

Ok, fine, will do that.

It is different, and that was intentional. What I wanted, was the syntax
to be exactly the same of `xl vcpu-pin', which is the command line
equivalent of this option, much more than cpupool-*. If you want, I
think I can easily enable list-like CPU specification as in cpupool
config file so that _both_ syntax are allowed. What do you think?

Ok.
