that's exactly which i'm not really want!
i really like to keep at a standard distributed upstream patched kernel.
we never would like to use non redhat/centos kernel on servers. we all
have fedora on our workstations, but (probably that's way) we all knows
the stability of these kernels. ok currently kvm also bring the hosts
and the guest to the same level or even worse, but i hope it'd change in
the near feature (the only thing i want a stable smp guest kvm and
probably won't update it for a while).
i can try a fedora kernel just for test but wouldn't like to switch the
whole host os and it's not so trivial to change only the kernel under
redhat/centos (there are udev and other dependencies).
