Would you mind resending this as a top-level thread, so that it gets
properly threaded?  My mail client split 0/2 and 2/2 into an old series,
and 1/2 somewhere else.

I'm a bit worried about backward compatibility; if there are existing
scripts that parse the output, will they be confused if we introduce a
third symbol?  Then again, offline host cpus are indeed a different
beast than cpus that the guest has been assigned to, so I think we can
make this change.
