.. and when I decided to actually do some minimal kvm testing with
that patch, I notice that we've apparently broken kvm entirely during
this merge window, and I just get

  Error: KVM_CREATE_VM ioctl
  Warning: Failed init: kvm__init

when doing lkvm run.

Bisecting. But that's unrelated to the recent kvm build breakage.
