[PATCH] powerpc: Make KVM_GUEST default to n

STALE5534d

From: Anton Blanchard <hidden>
Date: 2011-08-05 03:23:58

KVM_GUEST adds a 1 MB array to the kernel (kvm_tmp) which grew
my kernel enough to cause it to fail to boot.

Dynamically allocating or reducing the size of this array is a
good idea, but in the meantime I think it makes sense to make
KVM_GUEST default to n in order to minimise surprises.
