Some users think this is a good idea:

      <vcpu placement='static'>4</vcpu>
      <cpu mode='host-model'>
        <model fallback='allow'/>
        <numa>
          <cell id='0' cpus='0-1' memory='1048576' unit='KiB'/>
          <cell id='1' cpus='9-10' memory='2097152' unit='KiB'/>
        </numa>
      </cpu>

It's not. Lets therefore introduce a check and discourage them in
doing so.
