Well, this was the reason why I dropped CONFIG_PCI from
KVM_GUEST_COMMON_OPTIONS in the first place - to not have the circular
dependency splat above and assuming that people simply have CONFIG_PCI
enabled already.

Well, off the top of my head, we could do the following; I'd need to
hammer on it for a while though before it feels ok with all that Kconfig
jumble. Unless someone has a better idea, of course...
