Damn you Ingo Molnar, I knew you'd somehow get all the credit for our
hard work! ;-)

More seriously, though, I fail to see what's bothering you Alexander.
I and Ingo already mentioned we wouldn't be hacking on Qemu even if
there wasn't no tools/kvm. It's not as if we're putting *your* user
space code into the kernel tree - we wrote our own! What's wrong with
that?
