ok, this is still not fixed in rt2 - which is using Rusty's 
paravirt-unexport patch.

Andrew, we need to fix this before v2.6.20 is released. Simplest 
upstream fix is to just disable the CONFIG_PARAVIRT Kbuild option, as 
per the patch below. Rusty's unexport patch is promising in many ways, 
but it's v2.6.21 stuff IMO.

i'm keeping it enabled in -rt, which makes actual use of this 
infrastructure via KVM-paravirt, so it wont be forgotten.

	Ingo

disable CONFIG_PARAVIRT for now - it's not like that it is useful for 
anything in-tree at the moment. I'll make sure it's fixed in v2.6.21.
