Will remove that. It's a leftoever from a previous version where the
cpu-off test was a separate test selected via the command line.

cpu0 is the boot CPU, I don't see how cpu0 can execute this line of code
and be in idle at the same time. Unless this is done for documenting
purposes, to explain why we compare the number of cpus in idle to nr_cpus
-1 below. But I still find it confusing, especially considering (almost)
the same assert is in smp.c:

void on_cpu_async(int cpu, void (*func)(void *data), void *data)
{
	[..]
        assert_msg(cpu != 0 || cpu0_calls_idle, "Waiting on CPU0, which is unlikely to idle. "
                                                "If this is intended set cpu0_calls_idle=1");

I know, it's a different scenario, but the point I'm trying to make is that
kvm-unit-tests really doesn't expect cpu0 to be in idle. I would prefer not
to have the assert here.

Looks good, will do it this way.
