Yes, I think Chris also pointed out the need for these patches (or in my 
case, maybe I only need the realview.c patch).

Is there a way to apply these patches automatically, say, in 
qemu-git.1.cfg ??  The problem seems to be that RSB always does a pull 
from the qemu remote and overwrites the patches that I manually applied 
in the RSB created qemu.git directory. There are other patches done in 
qemu-git.1.cfg but I don't really understand how the "%patch" lines work 
when a local patch needs to be done (or if this is possible).
