[PATCH] KVM: Add Kconfig option to signal cross-endian guests

From: Thomas Huth <hidden>
Date: 2015-07-09 07:49:22
Also in: kvm, kvmarm, linux-arm-kernel, lkml
Subsystem: arm port, arm64 port (aarch64 architecture), kernel virtual machine (kvm), kernel virtual machine for arm64 (kvm/arm64), kernel virtual machine for powerpc (kvm/powerpc), linux for powerpc (32-bit and 64-bit), networking drivers, the rest, virtio host (vhost) · Maintainers: Russell King, Catalin Marinas, Will Deacon, Paolo Bonzini, Marc Zyngier, Oliver Upton, Madhavan Srinivasan, Michael Ellerman, Andrew Lunn, "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Linus Torvalds, "Michael S. Tsirkin", Jason Wang

The option for supporting cross-endianness legacy guests in
the vhost and tun code should only be available on systems
that support cross-endian guests.
