For Intel and PowerPC the implementation is calling a cpu driver function across driver layers (i.e. from qemu driver directly to cpu driver). The correct behavior is to use libvirt API functionality to perform such a inter-driver call. This patch introduces a new cpu driver API function getModels() to retrieve the cpu models. The currect implementation to process the cpu_map XML content is transferred to the INTEL and PowerPC cpu driver specific API functions. Additionally processing the cpu_map XML file is not safe due to the fact that the cpu map does not exist for all architectures. Therefore it is better to encapsulate the processing in the architecture specific cpu drivers.

LibVirt : simple API for virtualization
Libvirt is a C toolkit to interact with the virtualization capabilities
of recent versions of Linux (and other OSes). It is free software
available under the GNU Lesser General Public License. Virtualization of
the Linux Operating System means the ability to run multiple instances of
Operating Systems concurrently on a single hardware system where the basic
resources are driven by a Linux instance. The library aim at providing
long term stable C API initially for the Xen paravirtualization but
should be able to integrate other virtualization mechanisms if needed.
