Yeah, from the rt-summit [ http://lwn.net/Articles/572740/ ] it is on me
to get those simple wait queue patches mainlined (and then the local_bh
stuff).  Once I've got that done, I'll look at spending some time on 3.12-rt
kvm patches -- in the meantime, you are right, the screenshot shows that his
3.10-rt needs the straightforward conversion of vpcu->wq to simple wait.
