Yes, static expansion of host model must always return an error
if it's not possible to expand.

OK. I will propose a patch updating the query-cpu-model-expansion
documentation to be more explicit about it.
The only real alternative I see would be disabling the query-cpu-model-*
interface completely if KVM support is not available.
This would however mean, that the same QEMU binary would have the
interface when running under TCG, but not when running under KVM on an
old KVM version.
That also doesn't really feel right, or what do you think?
