We're continuing the merge with kvm support in upstream qemu, and this
is rocking the boat; please test carefully.
Important note: unlike most kvm releases, userspace in this release is
required the modules from kvm-80 (or above), and will not work with
older versions or with the modules provided by the upstream kernel.
This will be corrected in kvm-81.
