From my point of view, PRS_ERROR is used when cpus are gone because of
cpu hotplug (offline). It can be a temporary condition that will be
corrected later on. I don't want to use PRS_ERROR for the particular
case that the users have explicitly distributed out all the cpus to
child partitions. I will clarify it in the next version and double check
to make sure that this rule is consistently apply.

Thanks,
