Re: [libvirt] [PATCH 3/9] target-i386: Call cpu_exec_init() on realize

QOM instance_init functions are not supposed to have any side-effects, as new objects may be created at any moment for querying property information (see qmp_device_list_properties()). Calling cpu_exec_init() also affects QEMU's ability to handle errors during CPU creation, as some actions done by cpu_exec_init() can't be reverted. Move cpu_exec_init() call to realize so a simple object_new() won't trigger it, and so that it is called after some basic validation of CPU parameters.
