Xen supports hyperthreading just fine, and even does initial domain
placement using an algorithm that understands it.

In fact, it looks like we effectively lost the option to ever disable
hyperthreading when the setup code got upgraded. It would be nice if
part of your patch removed any reference to 'noht', including in the
documentation.

Thanks,
Ian
