[PATCH -v3 2/2] x86: Make Linux guest support optional

From: Borislav Petkov
Date: Sat Jan 26 2013 - 18:08:00 EST


From: Borislav Petkov <bp@xxxxxxx>

Put all config options needed to run Linux as a guest behind a
CONFIG_HYPERVISOR_GUEST menu so that they don't get built-in by default
but be selectable by the user. Also, make all units which depend on
x86_hyper, depend on this new symbol so that compilation doesn't fail
when CONFIG_HYPERVISOR_GUEST is disabled but those units assume its
presence.

While at it, adjust text to changes, remove redundant select.
