It will allow firmware to notify QEMU that firmware requires SMI
being triggered on CPU hot[un]plug, so that it would be able to account
for hotplugged CPU and relocate it to new SMM base and/or safely remove
CPU on unplug.
Using negotiated features, follow up patches will insert SMI upcall
into AML code, to make sure that firmware processes hotplug before
guest OS would attempt to use new CPU.
