In fact, right now, if the "vcpus=" list (where the
user specifies what vcpus should be part of a vnode)
has multiple elements, things don't work.
E.g., the following examples all result in failure
to create the guest:

 [ "pnode=0","size=512","vcpus=0,2","vdistances=10,20"  ]
 [ "pnode=0","size=512","vcpus=0-1,4","vdistances=10,20"  ]

Reason is we need either a multidimentional array,
or a bitmap, to temporary store the vcpus of a
vnode, while parsing the vnuma config entry.

Let's use the latter, which happens to also make it
easier to copy the outcome of the parsing to its
final destination in b_info, if everything goes ok.

That sounds like a cure, not the reason for the failure. Please can you
explain the nature of the failure, so it becomes clear why this change
is needed.

With the following configuration:
vcpus       = '4'
memory      = '1024'
vnuma = [ [ "pnode=0","size=512","vcpus=0,1","vdistances=10,20"  ],
          [ "pnode=1","size=512","vcpus=2,3","vdistances=20,10"  ] ]

The error message is this one:
xl: maxvcpus < vcpus

The reason is that, without this change, we only process the first
element of the "vcpus=" list, i.e., only vcpu 0 (for vnode 0) and vcpu 2
(for vnode 1), up to a total of 2 (rather than 4) vcpus.

Basically, things only work if for each vnode, its vcpus are specified
by means of a single element.

Ok, I'll mention this in here.

Thanks and Regards,
