Where should this be documented? PCI/ACPI hotplug addresses are documented in
docs/specs/acpi_pci_hotplug.txt but for CPU hotplug documentation (i.e.
for the existing PROC_BASE) I don't see relevant documentation. I will
create a docs/specs/acpi_cpu_hotplug.txt if that sounds reasonable.

For pc-1.1, a new QEMUmachine type will be needed I assume. Should a check be
made against the machine version in the piix4 code? any relevant examples? 

thanks,
