we need to remove scsi controller, because live migration will crash,
as on migration target node, we'll start the vm without controller if no disk exist

pci bridge are not hot-unplugglable,
which can give us live migration problem,
if we hot-unplug a device on pcibridge 1 or 2, we don't create the pci bridge on target guest
and pci bridge hotplug is not working on all os (windows for example).
So it's better to always add them at startup.

It wasn't working with 2.6.32,
now that 3.10 kernel is the default, we can enable it.
It's help to be sure that all cpu flags are supported by host && qemu,
to be sure that nothing break

Paravirtualized End-of-Interrupt Indication (PV-EOI)
Hosts and guests require two VM exits (context switches from a VM to a Hypervisor) for each interrupt:
one to inject the interrupt, and another to signal the end of the interrupt.
With pv_eoi , they can negotiate a paravirtualized end-of-interrupt feature and only require one switch per interrupt.
Number of exits is reduced by half for interrupt-intensive workloads,
such as incoming network traffic with a virtio network device.
This leads to significant reduction in host CPU utilization for such workloads.

max dimm_memory size is 4TB, which is the current qemu limit
If the dimm_memory value is not aligned on memory module, we align the dimm_memory on the next module.
vmid.conf
---------
memory: 1024
numa:1
hotplug: memmory
when hotplug memory option is enabled, the minimum memory value must be 1GB, and also numa need to be enabled.
we assign the first 1GB as static memory, splitted on each numa nodes.
The remaining memory is assigned on hotpluggable dimm devices.
The static memory need to be also 128MB aligned, to have other dimm devices aligned too.
This 128MB alignment is a linux limitation, windows can align on 2MB size.
Numa need to be aligned, as linux guest don't boot on some setup with multi sockets,
and windows need numa to be able to hotplug memory
hotplug
----
qm set <vmid> -memory X (where X is bigger than current value)
unplug (not yet implemented in qemu)
------
qm set <vmid> -memory X (where X is lower than current value)
linux guest
-----------
-acpi hotplug module should be loaded in guest
-need a recent kernel. (tested with 3.10)
can be enable automaticaly, adding:
/lib/udev/rules.d/80-hotplug-cpu-mem.rules
SUBSYSTEM=="cpu", ACTION=="add", TEST=="online", ATTR{online}=="0", \
ATTR{online}="1"
SUBSYSTEM=="memory", ACTION=="add", TEST=="state", ATTR{state}=="offline", \
ATTR{state}="online"
windows guest
-------------
tested with:
- windows 2012 standard
- windows 2008 enterprise/datacenter
