I think the right fix is to just remove the VIRTUALIZATION > dependency for the qemu drivers and just include them from > drivers/Kconfig for all architectures. There aren't a whole lot Linux > architectures that don't have a qemu emulation these days. > Pulling drivers/Kconfig from drivers may not be the best option either, as it only pulls "PCI driver for virtio devices" and "Virtio balloon driver", which actually doesn't really belong to drivers, but maybe to "Bus options (PCI etc.)" and "Processor type and features". -- Aurelien Jarno GPG: 1024D/F1BCDB73 aurelien@xxxxxxxxxxx http://www.aurel32.net
