Why is KVM modular anyway? That seems like some pretty core cpu
functionality...
Many reasons. Developers like the ability to rmmod and modprobe during
development. Distros like to keep their non-modular core small. There
is an external module distribution that allows users to graft a new kvm
on an old kernel, which our testers and bleeding edge users like.
Because it's there.
There's always CONFIG_KVM=y if you don't want it.
Depending. It doesn't sound like svm has the problem where init doesn't
work so svm really doesn't need to do this.
svm can writeback into memory at odd times if we don't do this, and the
cost is small - clear a bit in EFER. There's no reason to be lazy.
