Hi,

When configuring the kernel compilation options, some are for the host, others
for the guest. Sometimes, the help text is not very clear between host and
guest. Some text are very clear as VHOST_NET is for the host.

Can you add in help text the mentions "for the host" or "for the guest" ?

For configuring the kernel of the guest, the selection of the processor family
may also be specified in help text if kvm does not export all the information
processor of the host.

Regards.
