Hi guys,

This is an early version of smp support in kvm that kinda works.
It has some known problems that I am still tracking. For example,
it does not reset very well. Also, initialization is a bit slow,
probably because of the number of remote ioctl calls involved.
But I believe Jan's patch to do a single ioctl can make it better.

Normal operation seem to be going smooth for me. I can boot the
machine and get it going decently. I'll keep working on the issues,
but comments are welcome in the mean time.
