Yeah, I'm stuck with 3.0, so my 3.0 is not as virgin as I would like it
to be.  It has threaded sirqs because I must have them, can turn cpupri
and nohz on/off on the fly because I must have to have that too to make
80 core boxen with tight jitter constraint be all they can be.

64 core test box has microscopic root and newer kernel drivers break its
userspace.  Putting a newer rt kernel on it to play is a pita, so I do
big box tinkering in 3.0.  I can make a 3.6 hacklet during the weekend.
