From: Zhao Liu <zhao1.liu@intel.com>
In the commit 54c4ea8f3ae6 ("hw/core/machine-smp: Deprecate unsupported
'parameter=1' SMP configurations"), the SMP related item is put under
the section "User-mode emulator command line arguments" instead of
"System emulator command line arguments".
-smp is a system emulator command, so move SMP configurations item to
system emulator section.

based on 7489f7f3f81d.
Note: the git diff understood my move of SMP item as the move of the
whole "User-mode emulator command line arguments" section, which may
cause confusion about the contents of this patch.
