Looks reasonable to me.

Not really to me.

SysBus does not support hotplugging and CPU hot plug shouldn't have anything to do with qdev hotplug.

Can you explain a bit more why this is needed?


On cpu hotplug an apic is added, and apics live on main_system_bus.

That's the problem then. An APIC does not live on any bus and that's where the problem ought to be fixed.
