Kernel 3.3 is released, and so is kvm-kmod-3.3 now as well. The
package is available from

http://sourceforge.net/projects/kvm/files/kvm-kmod/3.3/kvm-kmod-3.3.tar.bz2/download

See [1] for further details on kvm-kmod.

KVM changes since kvm-kmod-3.2:
 - more MMU/MMIO speedup
 - CPU feature whitelisting (BMI1/BMI2/FMA/AVX2)
 - cleanups (e.g. the schedule PV-MMU removal)

kvm-kmod changes:
 - fixed build against 2.6.32.40+

Note that the PMU feature of KVM in 3.3 is practically not available
via kvm-kmod as it depends on kernel features only available starting
with 3.3.
