Subject: [PATCH 0/7] More lguest massage.

urrently, lguest module can't be compiled without the PARAVIRT flag being
on.This is a fake dependency, since the module itself shouldn't need any
paravirtoverride. Reason for that is the reference to pv_info structure
ininitial loading tests.

his patch removes it in favour of a more generic error message.
