I apologize for the old references, but I wondered the same a while ago
and managed to get a SMP Realview EB kernel booted in QEMU IIRC. I
think it was only armv6 SMP back then. Main issue I had back then was
that it wouldn't support PCI so no networking or IDE. My notes are at:

(some other related message same month and next month)
I would myself love hearing what you manage to achieve, with which
configs and issues!
