Why? I don't see where the lstopo output shows more than one SoC.

So you say that the Cyrus board topology is wrong because QEMU can't recreate it? Wouldn't it rather mean that there's something wrong with QEMU if it can't recreate the topology of an existing board?

Just like it's supposed to be, right? Everything fine then.

What's wrong with the L3 cache in the lstopo output?

The memory controller is not part of the e5500 core. It's part of the SoC's '
uncore'. Also, 400 MHz and 800 MT/s is minimum spec for DDR3.
