3.0-rt5 boots single-CPU under KVM on a 32-bit laptop.  Also with "-smp
2".  It even survived a minute or so of rcutorture in both cases.  ;-)

Some weirdness with interactivity -- if the system is idle aside from
rcutorture, the rcutorture.stat_interval console messages don't come
out unless I hit "enter" on the console.  But if I run "top", they do
come out regularly.  Might well be KVM's fault, except that running
rcutorture on non-rt kernels doesn't exhibit this behavior.

I guess I should try RCU_BOOST=y, then...

							Thanx, Paul
