perhaps you could try it ?

commit 49d3bd7e2b990e717aa66e229410b8f5096c4956
Author: Laurent Vivier <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Date:   Mon Oct 22 16:33:07 2007 +0200

     KVM: Use new smp_call_function_mask() in kvm_flush_remote_tlbs()

     In kvm_flush_remote_tlbs(), replace a loop using smp_call_function_single()
     by a single call to smp_call_function_mask() (which is new for x86_64).

Yes, it seems...

> Is this is a known bug and any options to correct it? It works fine with 2 
> vcpus, but for a comparison with xen I'd like to get the vm working with 4.
