kernel config

after upgrading to linux-4.2, i found my system no longer booted -- it paniced
pretty early on.  after bisecting it down, it started with:
commit fd717f11015f673487ffc826e59b2bad69d20fe5
KVM: x86: apply guest MTRR virtualization on host reserved pages

going back to the linux-4.2 release, if i revert these commits, things boot:
fd717f11015f673487ffc826e59b2bad69d20fe5
e098223b789b4a618dacd79e5e0dad4a9d5018d1
3c2e7f7de3240216042b61073803b61b9b3cfb22
i needed all three because the other two started using code from the first bad
commit.

i'm using a AMD Phenom(tm) II X4 980 Processor.  having trouble getting a panic
log (no serial port).  will try to manually offload it.
