-On powerpc using book3s_hv mode, the vcpus are mapped onto virtual
-threads in one or more virtual CPU cores. (This is because the
-hardware requires all the hardware threads in a CPU core to be in the

For virtual cpus that have been created with S390 user controlled virtual
machines, the resulting vcpu fd can be memory mapped at page offset
