Linux kernel source tree

kvm.ko is nothing but library code shared by kvm-intel.ko and kvm-amd.ko.
It provides no functionality on its own and it is unnecessary unless one
of the vendor-specific module is compiled. In particular, /dev/kvm is
not created until one of kvm-intel.ko or kvm-amd.ko is loaded.
Use CONFIG_KVM to decide if it is built-in or a module, but use the
vendor-specific modules for the actual decision on whether to build it.
This also fixes a build failure when CONFIG_KVM_INTEL and CONFIG_KVM_AMD
are both disabled. The cpu_emergency_register_virt_callback() function
is called from kvm.ko, but it is only defined if at least one of
CONFIG_KVM_INTEL and CONFIG_KVM_AMD is provided.
Fixes:

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
