I guess this case is based on downstream's TDX patches... Since TDX
hasn't landed in QEMU yet, it's a bit ahead of the curve to elaborate on
TDX-specific case.

Because normal VM will also face the such cache topology error, I think
it could be stated a bit more generically like:

When creating a CPU topology of 1 core per package, host-cache-info only
uses the Host's addressable core IDs field (CPUID.04H.EAX[bits 31-26]),
resulting in a conflict (on the multicore Host) between the Guest core
topology information in this field and the Guest's actual cores number.

Fix it by removing the unnecessary condition to cover 1 core per package
case. This is safe because cores_per_pkg will not be 0 and will be at
least 1.

12 characters (d7caf13b5fcf) is enough. No blank line. ;-)
