I would suggest "make mrproper" to clean the source tree. Ensure that
the .config has been backed up because it will be deleted as a result.

I had no module "kvm" because one was built as module and one into the
kernel. I now did mrproper and recompile both kvm and kvm_amd into the
kernel. The next reboot will show ...

Rather simple issue:

I have a kernel in boot with the suffix -safe ... and this one got
listed first in grub.conf.

kerninst found that one and always set that one as default so my various
recompilings never changed the kernel itself but only the modules ...
which lead to strange mismatches ...

You could customize EXTRAVERSION for your safe kernel to prevent this from happening. It can be modified in the Makefile or - if I recall correctly - by creating a file named "localversion-safe" in the root of the source tree and enabling CONFIG_LOCALVERSION. That way, its module directory would be distinct.


Now I am on a clean and mrproper 3.10.7-r1 ... WITH /dev/kvm !

Thanks!

And the performance of the first VM looks good ... even with the vmdk
... conversion will follow.
