Curious, why are you targetting Fedora kernels at all? They have a really short shelf life. I though kvm-kmod was for people using longer term kernels like enterprise distros or long lived embedded projects.

For Fedora, you can use the native kvm, or install a rawhide kernel, or an upstream kernel with 'make localmodconfig'.
