SMP is supported on EV6, at least it seems to run with 2 CPUs on the dual
boxes I have access to. I think what you're looking at is interupt
handling (somebody please correct me if I'm wrong).

the above source file seems to infer that interrupts are always
delivered to cpu#0. perhaps this is just for initialisation purposes,
i don't know.
