Subject: [PATCH] KVM: PPC: Add devname:kvm aliases for modules
=20
Systems that support automatic loading of kernel modules through
device aliases should try and automatically load kvm when /dev/kvm
gets opened.
=20
Add code to support that magic for all PPC kvm targets, even the
ones that don't support modules yet.

This patch breaks the build on KMV Book3E, you need to include
<linux/module.h> too.
