The patch titled KVM: Recover after an arch module load failure has been added to the -mm tree. Its filename is kvm-recover-after-an-arch-module-load-failure.patch See http://www.zip.com.au/~akpm/linux/patches/stuff/added-to-mm.txt to find out what to do about this ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: KVM: Recover after an arch module load failure From: Yoshimi Ichiyanagi <ichiyanagi.yoshimi@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> If we load the wrong arch module, it leaves behind kvm_arch_ops set, which prevents loading of the correct arch module later. Fix be not setting kvm_arch_ops until we're sure it's good.
