Apart from the namespace issues (don't export library-private functions,
start names with kvm_) this looks good. Please make sure that it's
bisect friendly (should compile as each patch is applied in sequence).
With git I use something like
for rev in $(git rev-list foo..bar); do git checkout $rev; make; done
to make sure that's the case.
