Conceptually that is fine. Before the introduction of CPU sockets
with 2+ dies, you can credibly say that all sockets had 1 die, so
it is nreasonable for users to say -smp ....,dies=1,....
libvirt will unconditionally set dies=1 for all QEMU targets if
the user didn't specify an explicit dies value

I don't see that this is benefitting apps/users.
