Like said in 0/n I think, I only booted the kernel in kvm, didn't
actually do anything with it.

It took me most of the day to figure out how to get paravirt working at
all, didn't feel like spending another many hours trying to figure out
how to make the crap thing do actual work.

But I'll see what I can do after we can 'conceptually' agree on the
paravirt patch.
