This tests the commit 196ea60a73 ("hw/smbios: Fix core count in
type4").
In smbios_build_type_4_table() (hw/smbios/smbios.c), if the number of
cores in the socket is not more than 255, then smbios type4 table
encodes cores per socket into the core count field.
So for the topology in this case, there're the following considerations:
1. cores per socket should be not more than 255 to ensure we could cover
the core count field.
2. The original bug was that cores per socket was miscalculated, so now
we should include as many topology levels as possible (mutiple
sockets & dies, no module since x86 hasn't supported it) to cover
more general topology scenarios, to ensure that the cores per socket
encoded in the core count field is correct.
Based on these considerations, select the topology with multiple sockets
and dies:
-smp 54,sockets=2,dies=3,cores=3,threads=3
The expected core count = cores per socket = cores (3) * dies (3) = 9.
