Hi Alex,

Marc and I have been looking at this during Linaro connect and have
slightly reworked your patch into this small series.

It would be good if you could have a look at it and test it out.

I've tested it with your QEMU, and it works for UP, but secondary CPUs
fail to come up, and it looks like the kernel never gets an IPI for
those CPUs from userspace.  Any chance you're willing to take a look at
that?
I still need to see whether I can come up with a prettier solution, but
for now this works:
diff --git a/target-i386/kvm.c b/target-i386/kvm.c
Eh, no, not in i386 code :). But the problem seems to be a missing
mpstate sync.
Yeah, that looked really dodgy.  Have you tested it? :)
I have, but I ran the wrong command line and by accident used -M
...,kernel-irqchip=on :)
