These functions make the internal s390 cpu model API independent from a 
specific accelerator:  

int s390_set_processor_props(S390ProcessorProps *prop)
{
    if (kvm_enabled()) {
        return kvm_s390_set_processor_props(prop);
    }
    return -ENOSYS;
}

It's called by:

s390_select_cpu_model(const char *model)

which is itself called by:

S390CPU *cpu_s390x_init(const char *cpu_model)
{
    S390CPU *cpu;

    cpu = S390_CPU(object_new(s390_select_cpu_model(cpu_model)));

    object_property_set_bool(OBJECT(cpu), true, "realized", NULL);

    return cpu;
}

So above s390_set/get_processor_props() the code is accelerator independent.
