Hi Riku,

Basically you just need to do a vexpress_defconfig, and then you have
to deselect compiling the kernel in Thumb-2 mode (hardware bug) and
select support for architected timers (and appropriate driver support
depending on what you're emulating, using virtio etc.).

I usually run my guest kernel with LPAE and virt support as well, but
both should work.
