I agree that for automatic testing it's more of a burden; but it needs
to be done, especially as some kvm features are only enabled on newer
kernels.

The external module is convenient, but it's not a substitute for the
real thing.

So, I have a question here, When will you drop external module support?

I don't really know.

You know, it blocks our auto-testing system now, we have to re-evaulate
the effort without external module support.

I think it's very worthwhile to update the autotester to be able to build kernels. kvm will soon depend on core functionality (mmu notifiers) and since currently kvm is the only user (well, gru will be added soon, but ...) we need to test it ourselves.

If it won't be dropped in a few weeks, we are eager to get its support
for kvm-ia64.


Okay, please send the patches, but with diff -M so they're readable.
