Understood---it actually looks like it was intentional:
commit 400281af34e5ee6aa9f5496b53d8f82c6fef9319

set CPUID bits to present cores and threads topology
Controlled by the enhanced -smp option set the CPUID bits to present the
guest the desired topology. This is vendor specific, but (with the exception
of the CMP_LEGACY bit) not conflicting, so we set all bits everytime.
There is no real multithreading support for AMD CPUs, so report cores
instead.
