1. qemu-kvm does not use its own headers when you specify --disble-kvm.
   That's the technical reason for this bug.

2. Upstream does not, and it's unclear if it ever will (if we push
   recent headers into kvm-kmod, I think there is no urgent need
   anymore). At least for code to-be-pushed upstream, we must not
   rely in this anyway.
