[Qemu-devel] [RFC PATCH] kvm: Enable -cpu option to hide KVM

[Alex Williamson]

The latest Nvidia driver (337.88) specifically checks for KVM as the
hypervisor and reports Code 43 for the driver in a Windows guest when
found.  Removing or changing the KVM signature is sufficient to allow
the driver to load.  This patch adds an option to easily allow the KVM
hypervisor signature to be hidden using '-cpu no-kvm'.
