Some guests (ex. Darwin-XNU) can attemp to read this MSR to retrieve and
validate CPU topology comparing it to ACPI MADT content
MSR description from Intel Manual:
35H: MSR_CORE_THREAD_COUNT: Configured State of Enabled Processor Core
Count and Logical Processor Count
Bits 15:0 THREAD_COUNT The number of logical processors that are
currently enabled in the physical package
Bits 31:16 Core_COUNT The number of processor cores that are currently
enabled in the physical package
Bits 63:32 Reserved
