9bac43
We recently had some discussions that were sidetracked for a while, because
9bac43
nearly everyone misapprehended the purpose of the 'max_threads' field in
9bac43
the compatiblity modes table.  It's all about guest expectations, not host
9bac43
expectations or support (that's handled elsewhere).
9bac43
9bac43
In an attempt to avoid a repeat of that confusion, rename the field to
9bac43
'max_vthreads' and add an explanatory comment.
